Division of North American Aviation, Inc.
A
digitally-restored copy of the rare (1964) Rocketdyne liquid rocket engine
test facility systems training manual. This one of the key books
that was used to train rocket engineers and technicians for static testing
the Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo propulsion systems.
Comprehensive
and highly-technical, this unusual "working document" describes in great
detail the complete static test facilities systems, equipment, plumbing,
tanks, valves, instrumentation, wiring, and fire extinguishing apparatus.
You can
use it to learn how liquid oxygen is made, handled, piped, stored, and
controlled. It also covers working with liquid hydrogen, liquid oxygen,
high-pressure helium, and other exotic chemicals, as well as the usual
rocket fuels of that era.
You can
also use it to design your own rocket test systems! A perfect addition
to the library of every serious rocket scientist, engineer, technician,
experimenter, or space historian.
A sample
page of the section describing production of liquid oxygen
The
book has many schematics, diagrams, and flow charts of the
liquid
propellant rocket engine test facilities, such as these examples
There
are also many detailed engineering drawings
of components; this shows a special valve assembly........
Long
out-of-print, this new limited edition of the original Rocketdyne text
has been digitally restored and republished by the Rocket Science Institute.
106 pages, including numerous drawings, tables, and charts. Size
is 8.5 by 5.5-inches.
Here's
your chance to have an exceptional rocket science textbook at an affordable
