@@jackeldridge1319 The turbopump exhaust goes into the combustion chamber only in the case of a staged combustion cycle engine (like the RS-25 from the Space Shuttle) or in an expander cycle engine (like the RL-10). In the case of the Mainsail, I guess it's a gas generator cycle because the gases produced by the generator go to the turbopump and then overboard. This happens because the gas generator operates at a different mixture ratio than the thrust chamber in order not to stress the turbine too much. The exhausts of the generator is thus incompatible with the mixture in the main chamber

6:26 You guessed absolutely right, the Vulcain is a gas generator cycle engine and these are the exhaust pipes for the turbo pump exhaust. The two little nozzles are just there to get a bit of extra push from the remaining pressure of that gas, making the engine just a little bit more efficient. I'm not sure though as to why there are two of them, maybe it's just to keep the thrust symmetrical or there are separate turbines for the fuel and oxidizer fuel pumps respectively.

If I understand your question correctly, the tubes are the exhaust of the generator. Usually they create almost no thrust, since most of the gas work (А) is spent on rotating the turbine. Если я правильно понял твой вопрос, трубки - это выхлопные трубы генератора. Обычно выхлопные газы генератора почти не создают тяги, так как большая часть их работы затрачивается на вращение турбины.

it’s more like the delta IV, also had 3 cores, had similarly shaped engines, only had 1 engine per core instead of 9, had orange tanks bc it was using hydrolox (the orange colour is caused by the insulating foam) and it had cross feeding which the falcon heavy did not end up using, so it’s in every way a lot more similar to the delta IV heavy rather than the falcon heavy

[@Max255PL]

DIVH does not crossfeed FYI.

If you where allowed to build and transfer materials into different environments like the moon or in orbit or in between the orbit of the moon and kerbel to facilitate orbital building. Maybe next instead of all missions being from kerbel to the various interstellar bodies. It will be a infrastructure simulator with the design freedom to build orbital and or dif-planetary colony infrastructure. While designing ships designed purely in space to transfer cargo.With maybe time based mission of sending supplies between your stations and or colony.
