  2. Executor (rocket engine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Executor_(rocket_engine)

    The Executor engine for the first stage of the Haas 2B and Super Haas launchers and for the IAR-111 Excelsior airplane. The second variant is the Executor Plus engine that it uses a larger exhaust nozzle optimized for vacuum operation. The Executor Plus is used on the Haas 2 air-launched rocket and on the second stage of the Super Haas rocket. [3]

    Figure 1: A de Laval nozzle, showing approximate flow velocity increasing from green to red in the direction of flow Density flow in a nozzle. A rocket engine nozzle is a propelling nozzle (usually of the de Laval type) used in a rocket engine to expand and accelerate combustion products to high supersonic velocities.

  4. Bell nozzle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell_nozzle

    The bell-shaped or contour nozzle is probably the most commonly used shaped rocket engine nozzle. It has a high angle expansion section (20 to 50 degrees) right behind the nozzle throat; this is followed by a gradual reversal of nozzle contour slope so that at the nozzle exit the divergence angle is small, usually less than a 10 degree half angle.

  5. Rocket engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rocket_engine

    Rocket engine nozzles are surprisingly efficient heat engines for generating a high speed jet, as a consequence of the high combustion temperature and high compression ratio. Rocket nozzles give an excellent approximation to adiabatic expansion which is a reversible process, and hence they give efficiencies which are very close to that of the ...

  6. Rocketdyne F-1 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rocketdyne_F-1

    The F-1 engine is the most powerful single-nozzle liquid-fueled rocket engine ever flown. The M-1 rocket engine was designed to have more thrust, but it was only tested at the component level. The later developed RD-170 is much more stable, technologically more advanced , more efficient and produces more thrust, but uses four nozzles fed by a ...

  7. Nozzle extension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nozzle_extension

    The application of nozzle extensions improves the efficiency of rocket engines in vacuum by increasing the nozzle expansion ratio. As a rule, their modern design assumes use of carbon-carbon materials without regenerative cooling. Nozzle extensions can be both stationary, for high-altitude engines, or sliding, for engines designed to operate at ...

    The most famous pastebin is the eponymous pastebin.com. [citation needed] Other sites with the same functionality have appeared, and several open source pastebin scripts are available. Pastebins may allow commenting where readers can post feedback directly on the page. GitHub Gists are a type of pastebin with version control. [citation needed]

  9. Propelling nozzle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propelling_nozzle

    The secondary or final nozzle was a fixed geometry sized for the maximum afterburner case. At non-afterburner thrust settings the exit area was too big for the closed engine nozzle giving over-expansion. Free-floating doors were added to the ejector allowing secondary air to control the primary jet expansion. [11]
