Everything about Expander cycle
Rocket engine operation method
The expander cycle is a power cycle of a Bipropellant liquid rocket engine. In this cycle, the fuel is used to cool the engine's combustion chamber, picking up heat and changing phase. The now heated and gaseous fuel then powers the turbine that drives the engine's fuel and oxidizer pumps before being injected into the combustion chamber and burned. Wikipedia →
