| ROCKET ENGINE COMPONENTS | ||
A chemical rocket engine is also an engine that uses chemicals for its propellant. These chemicals can be either liquid or solid. A chemical rocket engine mixes fuel and oxidizer, like the car engine and jet engine, and delivers thrust out the exit like a jet engine. Unlike the car and jet engines, a rocket engine has both fuel and oxidizer stored internally. Together, the fuel and oxidizer are called the rocket propellant. |
