ideal performance, constant chamber pressure for the entire flight, expansion ratio of and structure mass is of
propellant mass. Calculate the following
Part a points
Part b points
Part c points
Part d points
Part e points
Part f points
Engine thrust at sea level and burnout altitude
Engine chamber pressure
Nozzle throat diameter
Engine mass flow rate
Engine specific impulse at sea level
Payload mass
