Rocket engine performance is quoted in terms of frozen or shifting equilibrium nozzle expansion processes; experiments made with RP-1/oxygen propellant system consisted of measurement of flow rates, chamber pressure, nozzle pressure profile, and static gas temperature in large (30.1) expansion ratio nozzle; it is found that near frozen conditions exist at low (below 1.6) oxidizer to fuel (O/F) ratios, and near equilibrium conditions exist at higher (above 2.0) O/F ratios.
