Total Energy At Nozzle Inlet For a Saturn V Rocket Engine Calculator

The Saturn V rocket, used in the Apollo missions, had several stages, each with different engines. The first stage of the Saturn V used five F-1 engines, the second stage used five J-2 engines, and the third stage used a single J-2 engine.

For the Saturn V rocket engines, you would need to refer to the specific technical documentation or engineering data provided by NASA or the engine manufacturer for precise information.

The total energy () at the nozzle Inlet can be expressed as:

where,

  • E is the Total Energy, i.e sum of kinetic and potential energy
  •  is the Static Enthalpy at nozzle Inlet,
  •  is the velocity of the incoming air relative to the reference frame of the engine
