ABSTRACT:
A woven, silicon carbide fiber inner wall forms a combustor liner and a nozzle throat liner, and a woven silicon carbide fiber outer wall is spaced from the inner wall to form a fuel passageway. The silicon carbide fibers are woven to conduct heat from the combustor and nozzle throat to the fuel passageway and thereby provide heat for the endothermic pyrolysis of the fuel in a propulsion system having a rocket casing containing a combustor, propellant injectors, nozzle throat and nozzle. The fuel passageway is adjacent to and surrounds the combustor and nozzle throat, and fuel is endothermically pyrolyzed in the fuel passageway.
