Development of 25N oxygen-kerosene thruster
The paper introduces the scientific and technical groundwork obtained by the author and used as a basis for the development of an oxygen-kerosene rocket engine with a thrust of 25 N. This groundwork represents the results of research carried out on an experimental chamber developed by the author. The design of the chamber made it possible to study the effect of the configuration of the mixing element on its characteristics, the number of holes of oxygen supply to the internal cooling curtain, the length of the cylindrical section behind the curtain belt. The results of tests of various variants of the chamber and their analysis are presented. The results of tests of the developed engine, in which one of the camera variants is implemented, are given as well.
