Abstract: Transpiration-cooled systems having permeable and non-permeable portions are provided. In one aspect, a nozzle for a rocket engine includes a non-permeable outer layer, a plurality of walls, a permeable layer, and a plurality of cooling channels. The non-permeable outer layer forms a predetermined shape of the nozzle and defines an interior space. The plurality of walls extend generally orthogonal to the non-permeable outer layer and into the interior space. The permeable layer is disposed between each set of adjacent walls of the plurality of walls. The permeable layer is spaced a distance from the non-permeable outer layer. The plurality of cooling channels are formed between the permeable layer, the non-permeable outer layer, and a set of adjacent walls of the plurality of walls. The plurality of cooling channels are configured to transport a fluid.
