Abstract

With the extreme temperatures found within rocket engines cooling methods must be considered in their design. As a highly efficient way to cool combustion chambers, regenerative cooling systems have been a focus of study for numerous years. This research focuses on the effect of lattice structures within regenerative cooling channels to increase the effective heat transfer coefficient within the channels. The research is completed using hands-on experimental research as well as in-depth simulation for the determination of heat transfer within the cooling channel
