_ largely determines the numerical heat transfer rate and ______ largely determines the value of wall temperatures.

Gas film coefficient; thermal conductivity

Liquid film coefficient; gas film coefficient

Thermal conductivity; liquid film coefficient

Gas film coefficient; liquid film coefficient

Correct Answer : Gas film coefficient; liquid film coefficient

Explanation : Gas film coefficient largely helps in the determination of numerical value of heat transfer rate. Liquid film coefficient largely helps in determining the value of wall temperatures.

Determine the nozzle throat area for a rocket engine producing a total thrust of 10 kN, chamber pressure of 5.2 MPa and thrust coefficient of 1.9

10.12 cm²

11.20 cm²

12.10 cm²

21.10 cm²

Correct Answer : Option (A) : 10.12 cm²

Explaination : Nozzle throat area A_t = F/P₁C_F, where P₁ is the chamber pressure, C_F is the thrust coefficient and F is the total thrust provided by the rocket engine.
Then A_t = 10000/(5.2 x 10⁶ x 1.9)
= 10.12 cm².

The pressure drop across injector is usually set between _________ of the chamber pressure.

50 and 70%

45 and 65%

30 and 45%

15 and 25%

Correct Answer : Option (D) : 15 and 25%

Explaination : The pressure drop across the injector is set between 15 and 25% of the chamber pressure. This is done partly for obtaining high velocities of propellant injection. High velocities will help in easy atomization and droplet breakup which in turn helps in complete combustion.

Calculate the flow rate of LOX to the combustion chamber in a LOX-H2 rocket engine if the total propellant flow rate is 17 kg/s and mixture ratio is 3.2.

12.95 kg/s

13.67 kg/s

15.92 kg/s

17.81 kg/s

Correct Answer : Option (A) : 12.95 kg/s

Explaination : m?_o = m?_r/(r+1)
So m?_o = 17*3.2/4.2 = 12.95 kg/s.
