Report describes tests of dual-throat rocket engine burning hydrogen in oxygen. In tests, heat-flux profiles measured in inner nozzle and outer chamber. Dual-throat engine being considered for advanced space transportation. Consisting of two combustion chambers in series operating separately or together, engine makes it possible to change mode of operation in flight to obtain performance in most advantageous regime. Produces high thrust at sea level or low thrust with higher performance at high altitudes or in space.
