Features: The high-pressure regenerative liquid oxygen kerosene engine has the advantages of being non-toxic, non-polluting, high-performance, low-cost, and easy to use and maintain, making it a focal point of attention for major spacefaring nations. China is the second country after the Soviet Union to master the technology of high-pressure regenerative liquid oxygen kerosene engines. This book systematically introduces the design principles and structural characteristics of high-pressure regenerative liquid oxygen kerosene engines, with a focus on the engine's systems, thrust chamber, generator, turbopump, control systems, overall design, and testing. It also analyzes some of the faults that occurred during the engine development process. Many of the data, charts, and analyses in the book are based on years of experience and insights from engine development, presenting novel ideas and practical, detailed content. This book can serve as a reference for engineering technicians engaged in the overall design of launch vehicles and the research and design of liquid rocket engines, as well as for faculty, graduate students, and undergraduate students in related fields at universities.
