Other liquid fuel engines, including three that apparently are to be used on the next space shuttle flight, will be checked for unusual welds.

Works mainly with development of liquid fuel engines.

Goddard's first liquid fuel engine used a single impinging injector.

For example, liquid fuel engines turn out to be built from well-understood technologies, he said.

The F-1 still holds the crown of largest single-chamber, single-nozzle liquid fuel engine flown.

All engines were started before launch, eliminating the then unexplored task of igniting a large liquid fuel engine at high altitudes.

A 20-second test firing of its three main liquid fuel engines is scheduled for June 13.

Bolkovitinov asked Isaev to take over and master the technology of liquid fuel rocket engines.

Because this variant lacked the ability to reach high altitudes, the R3 model was developed, which had a liquid fuel engine with solid-fuel boosters.

The satellites have 16 liquid fuel engines for attitude control and 4 for manoeuvring.
