The diagram illustrates various components of a basic rocket engine, also demonstrating the process of combustion which occures in this mechanism.
Generally speaking, it is clear from the image that the structure is composed of 3 main compartments. Two of them are linked to the one on the bottom by pipes. Notably, the right pipe differenciates from the left one by being straight, in comparison to the angular pipe which transmitts the fuel.
More specifically, the top parts of the engine’s structure are the fuel and oxygen tanks. The fuel from the tank is pushed into the pump before travelling down to the injector and then the combustion chamber. Likewise, the oxygen flows out of the container and enters the oxidizer pump, proceeding to be thrown into the chamber.
As the picture suggests, the two components are then combusted. Folowing this process, the products of combustion are expeled from the lower vessel through the nozzle.
