Determine the mass of feed gas and the type of feed gas. Discuss the tank in which the feed gas is stored if applicable which you can find it in the textbook.

Part V. and Part vii

Discuss your propellant tanks here. Include a discussion of material, size, shape, etc.

Determine the type of propellant feed system. Calculate the thrust-to-initial weight ratio.

For pressure fed systems and blowdown systems, you need to determine the mass of feed gas and the type of feed gas.

Discuss the tank in which the feed gas is stored if applicable which you can find it in the textbook and the attached lecture notes for part vii There are two options: active cooling and passive cooling (radiation only). Perform a heat transfer analysis using only radiation cooling.

Determine if there is sufficient cooling by radiation to prevent the combustion chamber/nozzle from becoming too hot. If not, you then have to discuss a possible cooling system. You do not have to fully design the cooling system.
