The application of undeveloped rocket engine cycles to advanced manned launch vehicles is assessed. Two undeveloped rocket cycles are selected, the split expander cycle and the full flow staged-combustion cycle, for detailed engine description and comparison with more mainstream advanced vehicle engine candidates. In the formulation of the Next Manned Transportation System, propulsion is a key area for cost reduction because of the high cost elements associated with the current Space Transportation Syystem.
