Abstract
A method for manufacturing a liquid fueled rocket engine involves forming a first flange in apposition to a top end of a first tube, fixing an injector head to the first flange to form an inner shell liner assembly, shaping the inner shell liner assembly, forming a second flange in apposition to a top end of a second tube, positioning the inner shell assembly inside the second flanged tube and fixing the second flange to the injector head. Rocket engines manufactured using the method have performance superior to existing rocket engines in at least one parameter.
