  • Patent number: 11988171
    Abstract: A rocket engine section includes a combustion chamber body having an inner wall and a channel carrying a cooling medium extending outside and along the inner wall. The rocket engine section further comprises a porous portion integrally formed with the inner wall and integral with the inner wall and adapted to allow the cooling medium carried in the channel to pass from the channel to the interior of the combustion chamber body. A porosity of the porous portion determines a volume flow rate and/or mass flow rate of the cooling medium let through into the interior of the combustion chamber body.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20180010553
    Abstract: A rocket engine having a thrust chamber bounded by a casing construction with a chamber longitudinal axis. The casing construction includes at least one cooling channel in fluidic connection with a source of a cooling medium. The cooling channel is traversed by a plurality of bridge elements around which the cooling medium flows and which each extend only over a part, in particular a minor part, of the length of the cooling channel measured along the chamber longitudinal axis, and which connect two casing wall pieces, bounding the cooling channel on the inside and on the outside of the casing construction, to one another.

  • Patent number: 6202405
    Abstract: A combustion chamber wall structure for a high performance propulsion plant or a wall structure for a nozzle of flying bodies has an outer pressure jacket and an inner wall member provided with a multitude of cooling channels. In operation the inner wall is in contact with hot gases. An intermediate layer made of a material having shape memory characteristics and/or superelastic characteristics is arranged between the inner wall member and the outer pressure jacket.
