Experimental investigation of the pumps for cryogenic proppellants of the rocket fuel systems
Šuráň, David ; Rudolf, Pavel (referee) ; Kozák, Jiří (advisor)
This bachelor’s thesis deals with the pumping of cryogenic substances. The main objective is a research of experimental investigation of rocket turbopumps. Specific experiments, their purposes, processes and final results including the detailed description of the test rigs are listed. Originally, the work was aimed to pumping of the liquid oxygen (LOX), but it turned out that liquid oxygen simulants are used extensively during the experimental testing. The essential conditions for comparing those substances are stated. Major references were obtained from the experimental investigation technical reports and scientific articles. The rest of the work describes basics of hydrodynamics, pumps and their parameters, cavitation, inducers, rocket combustion cycles and liquid propellants. Finally, author designed a test rig for cryogenic substances pumping.
