A feed system is necessary to transfer either a mono-propellant or an oxidiser and a fuel from their respective tanks to the thrust chamber of a rocket engine. The feed systems discussed here are based on turbo-pumps, in which one or more turbines are used to drive pumps. The pumps, in turn, increase the pressures of the liquid propellants above their values of storage in the tanks, for the purpose of injecting them at high pressures into the main combustion chamber of the engine.
