The engine of a rocket vehicle is a machine which produces thrust by accelerating a gas flowing through the machine. The reaction to this acceleration is the force which drives the vehicle. The amount of thrust generated depends on the mass flow rate of the gas moving through the engine and on the exit velocity of the gas from the nozzle. The gas flow, the liquid propellants, the combustion process, and the principal components of a rocket engine are discussed here.
