Flown V2 thrust chamber relic from February 1945. Badly damaged from impact, this head shows 4 intact LOX input pipe connections as well as exposed fuel injector inserts positioned in the inner wall of the injector pots. The inner and outer walls of the head are also conveniently exposed on this exhibit. Photo www.v2rockethistory.com

V2 Rocket History Museum Relic: This cutaway presentation shows one of the V2’s 18 combined fuel and liquid oxygen (LOX) injector ‘pots’. The LOX injector transit cap is also shown. The pot shown here is sometimes incorrectly referred to as a pre-burner or pre chamber – a mixer or diffuser pot probably describes its role more accurately.

One of the V2’s 18 injector pots showing fuel and LOX injector copper alloy inserts. The spray head A is for liquid oxygen (LOX) and the numerous small injectors lining the chamber are for the fuel. The term pre-chamber is a throw-back to a time when combustion systems developed at the Kummersdorf test facility had a closed structure rather than the open bucket design seen here.
