Are you going to make one?

Looks like a good plan to improve F1 engine sounds.

I admittedly do not know much about rocket engines, but wouldn’t it be detrimental to have the exhaust nozzle(?) get white hot? I have to imagine it would deform with any bumps, if not collapse. Am I missing something? Very cool though.

It’s a jet, that’s just the afterburner. Hence why in real jet engines those parts are made of ceramics, inconel, of other high temp alloys.

I think that’s just because it’s using thin steel. As long as it doesn’t get too hot, it should be fine.

interestingly enough the engines used on the space shuttle and Apollo rockets are designed to have a layer of separation between the hot gasses and the bell cone to help shape the exhaust and keep the bell cone cool. Basically the aerodynamics of the bell cone encourage a separation layer

You can see it clearly at the VERY end of this clip

Looks like a pulse jet, like on the German V1 in WW2.
They’re about as simple as it gets, and they come even smaller than that one!

They pump cold liquid fuel through passages in the bell both to cool the bell and to pre-heat the fuel for combustion. My father-in-law did his doctoral dissertation in mechanical engineering in work related to that concept in the fifties.

Although, I realize the one in this article uses a turbo, so I guess it is a proper turbojet.
I’ll just shut up now.
It’s been a long day.

Please see my reply to Hammerhead below. Also, with solid rocket fuel, they’ll mix the ingredients such that they form a char on the inside of the exhaust nozzle to provide an insulating layer.

yup, thats that big conical spiral on the outside of the bell.
