The significance of turbo pumps in rocket propulsion from "summary" of Ignition! by John Drury Clark
The turbo pump is a critical component in rocket propulsion systems, playing a pivotal role in delivering fuel and oxidizer to the combustion chamber at high pressure. Without turbo pumps, rockets would not be able to achieve the necessary thrust to overcome Earth's gravity and reach orbit. Turbo pumps are essential for achieving high performance in rocket engines because they allow for the efficient combustion of propellants at high pressures. By increasing the pressure of the propellants before they enter the combustion chamber, turbo pumps enable rockets to generate more thrust and achieve higher velocities. The design and operation of turbo pumps require precision engineering and careful attention to detail. Turbo pumps must be able to withstand the extreme tempera...
