ABSTRACT:
A method for forming a coolant system for a rocket engine combustion chamber is provided. The method comprises the steps of providing a plurality of tubes formed and shaped into the profile of a nozzle with each of the tubes having a constantly expanding cross section in an upper chamber area, providing an inlet manifold and an exit manifold with a plurality of holes for receiving an end of each tube, inserting a brazing preform into each hole, inserting a first end of each tube into the inlet manifold and a second end of each tube into the outlet manifold so that the first end is surrounded by a first brazing preform and the second end is surrounded by a second brazing preform, and brazing the inlet and outlet manifolds to the tubes. The brazing step forms a series of brazed joints between the tubes and the manifolds. The method further includes the steps of forming a layer of coating material on exposed portions of the tubes and forming a single piece jacket construction around the tubes.
