One who understands such a complex system very well can explain it simply, beautifully, and precisely. Thank you for making learning engineering interesting for the students. The clear animation makes it better than my lectures.
As a rocket scientist, I must say it is explained and animated very well. Good job! For the material of tanks, actually composites are good candidates for embrittlement issues and also they are currently used due to their weight advantages.
Oh this is just beautiful!! Thanks for sharing this. I was reading the new book on SpaceX and came up on the term turbopumps and went searching. Boy am I glad I found your video within a few minutes (because most other explainers don't even come close).

@@GeovaniNogueira Everyday astronaut is decent but has a lot of misleading information and his own personal bias present. It is not a good replacement for dedicated study and there are better sources of introductory information.

That coating is bcuz hydrogen molecules are so small that they escape even through tiny holes due to imperfections in tanks metal fabrication, so the coating becomes a secondary barrier to prevent boil off
@@jesselopez0008 Please don't display how dumb you are with this nonsense. Defects such as dislocations in metal microstructure actually arrest hydrogen diffusion.

Here, read this to understand hydrogen diffusion: www.tandfonline(DOT)com/doi/full/10.1080/02670836.2017.1310417
Amazing explanation, simple yet packed with information. Never understood specific impulse when real engineering explained it, but totally understood it here
I've been thinking a lot about possible improvements, which might lead to better rocket technology and better specific impulse with using the same fuel. This video really puts all of that into fine package.
That's because at that small a scale electric turbopumps are the most efficient way of powering the engine in the terms of both weight and performance, not to mention complexity. Electrically pumped engines can throttle significantly deeper than gas generator engines, as well as be capable of running the tanks completely dry, as would be nearly impossible in gas generator engines as well as extremely damaging to the engine
Thank you for this wonderful video. Also must say that IRAN is started to make cryogenic engine. We achieved very good results in this technology. God bless you my dear friend.
@@taranjeetsingh4136 What ? was simply pointing out a fact that the channel is owned by an Indian ,so there is no point in saying "love from India" as if talking to someone from US or Europe as the original comment implies.
and also as far as I know the the the cross sectional area of the divergent section of the de-laval nozzle is so adjusted that the shock wave occurs only at outside the exit plane of the nozzle. Occurance of shock outside the nozzle make the flow supersonic or hypersonic through the complete section of the nozzle.
From TANZANIA COUNTRY, nothing to say, just God made some people to benefits other always, great salute to those who utilize a lot of time for such creativity, great ❤❤to them.🎉
The foam on the ET also functions as an insulator to prevent the cryogenic propellants from overheating and prevent ice buildup on the outside surface on the ET.
The explanations has been really great. I think that with small improvements, they could have been even better. For example, showing how fuels are mixed by the injector plate and burnt should be before the explanations of the pumps. This way the trick of cooling the combustion chamber with liquid H2 comes before using it at the turbo pump. It would have been also better to show possible electric motors in operation pumping fuel, before replacing them with turbine. Aka, show the motor moving the impaller, then keep the impaller in place and replace the motor with turbine. This way, even visually, there could be no doubt which part is driving the motion. Also, You said that you are giving example with the H2, but it would be nice to have a label on the screen. Especially when you need need two of them for the gas generator. Once again. Your videos are probably the best explanations I've seen so far.
You missed 2 important things: - propellant density is as important as specific impulse, making hydrogen not so obvious (+ other important criterion) - long duration cryogenic storage comes with its fair share of difficulties
Wonderfully explained in this short video with excellent graphics. Very interesting and inspiring for a teenager to take up rocket engine study for future development. 👍
you are correct! But they obviously get massive help from the solid rocket boosters, so that the space shuttle has enough thrust as a "first stage", to get to sufficient height before jettisoning them
Fact: Fuels with less maximum theoretical efficency tend to have larger density, so that's why you can see a Falcon 9 (22,000 kg to LEO) , using subcooled RP - 1 as fuel, would be much smaller than, say, a Delta IV Heavy, having more than double the size of fuel tanks (using LH2) while can only carries a little bit more payload (23,000 kg). (Note: To those of you who said that the Block 5 Falcon 9 actually only have 13,000 kg as LEO payload, remember that this rocket is partially reusable, and the first stage had to perform the slowing burn upon atmospheric reentry, plus a suicide burn to have a soft landing, so yeah.)
That high ISP becomes more important in space. Delta IV works better and better the further you need to send a spacecraft. New Horizons got the highest escape velocity of any spacecraft from earth because of this.
Another question ....how much in term of unit or lire have to reach the (injector plate) at combustion champers per second to successfully launch this rocket
Just to share a story with you guys, India never intended to make a cryogenic engine as it was supposed to get the technology of those engines from Russia, But when India was sanctioned by the US after it's first nuclear test, it started the project for cryogenic engine as America didn't allow the transfer of this technology to India.
America spent a lot of time supporting Pakistan and making every place it stepped in worse than what it was before and putting their own citizens in a conscience crisis. India has helped the USA far more in the form of so many brilliant minds.
So, when I do the math on this, I find that a propellant tank with a volume of, say, 100,000 cubic meters would be able to store about 70 tons of liquid hydrogen. That exact same propellant tank would be able to store about 800 tons RP-1 and about 1100 tons of hydrazine. So it's almost a tenfold decrease in propellant mass for only a 25% increase in specific impulse. That doesn't seem ideal to me. What am I missing? Even when you plug in the rocket equation in the other direction, you find out that a rocket powered by LH2/LOX needs a propellant tank ten time as large to get the same total delta-V as one powered by kerosine or even methane. And the larger tanks just means a much heavier rocket, which is exactly what we DON'T want, isn't it?
Hydrazine is very poisones and extremly corrosive, when i remember correct there was an accident in a nuclear Missile Silo with a hydrazine leak that leads to an explosion. See Planly Difficults Video here on RUclips.
@@xj9779 Sure, which is why they only use it for upper stages and ships in orbit like the Dragon Crew or the Starliner. But how do we justify "hydrogen is the best rocket fuel" when all the rockets hat use hydrogen have to be ten times as large as the rockets that use kerosine to get the same performance?
@@abdurrahmanhashmi1081 Even under pressure, liquid hydrogen only has a density of 70kg per cubic meter. They would have to get it to at least 8 times that density -- 500kg per cubic meter -- to be able to use the same size tanks. That's basically why the space shuttle and the SLS have to use these enormous solid rocket boosters. They don't carry enough fuel to get into space otherwise. A falcon 9 with two SRBs would basically have the same lifting capacity as a space shuttle.
It saddens me to realize that we are held back on the final frontier by having to innovate the same technology multiple times over due to patent laws and trade secrets
Patent and secrecy makes fair competition and others countries can get the same technology with different approaches and it is good for innovation. However I also think there have to be a valid patent expiry date that makes the technology to publicly available.
@@kundanborakb Generally, a patent expires after 20 years. That seems like a fair period to me. They totally make sense to me on a private market. The idea behind a patent is a trade: The state grants you the monopoly on a certain technology for a limited time, but in exchange you make your innovation publicly availabe. However, this video makes it sound very much like there is a lot of secrecy going on in the domain of these propulsion systems. In a global society, I don't see the merit in that when we are talking about technologies and projects that are too big to be developed by private companies anyways. Look at CERN, VIRGO and possibly ITER, giant projects where multiple countries pooled their ressources and knowledge. Those projects have achieved so much more than any country ever could have on their own.
Patent laws and trade secrets aren't the half of it. Once you learn what CIA tried to do to the Indian scientists who were working on developing this purely civilian technology for India.
Patent laws don't apply to government -- they can simply "eminent domain" away whatever patents they want to. Likewise presumably a powerful-enough lobby could also get the government to "de-patent" it for public domain if they wanted to (especially stuff like this that can be "useful" to the government itself, not just for some random little company to which the government would say, "Why should we listen to you?")
Unfortunately, this material is just too simplified, to an extent of not being true in few places. For example - cryogenic engines are not used mostly in upper, but rather in all stages, including booster (first) stages. Also, propellant selection is not only about getting most ISP, as it has inversely proportional relationship with thrust. There are far better starter materials out there, for example see Everyday Astronaut on YT.

Nambi sir is a legend
Without him cryogenic engine will not be there in India.
Unfortunately, this material is just too simplified, to an extent of not being true in few places. For example - cryogenic engines are not used mostly in upper, but rather in all stages, including booster (first) stages. Also, propellant selection is not only about getting most ISP, as it has inversely proportional relationship with thrust. There are far better starter materials out there, for example see Everyday Astronaut on YT.
Do you have pg on this? I think you have
Rocket propulsion lectures by IIT and nptel will be useful for you
