• For air-breathing engines such as turbojets, energy efficiency and propellant (fuel) efficiency are much the same thing, since the propellant is a fuel and the source of energy.
• A propellant tank is a container which is part of a vehicle, where propellant is stored prior to use. Propellant tanks vary in construction, and may be a fuel tank in the case of many aircraft.
• Fluorocarbons are also used as a propellant for metered-dose inhalers used to administer some asthma medications.
• About 170 different propellants made of liquid fuel have been tested, excluding minor changes to a specific propellant such as propellant additives, corrosion inhibitors, or stabilizers.
• In other words, given a particular engine and a mass of a particular propellant, specific impulse measures for how long a time that engine can exert a continuous force (thrust) until fully burning that mass of propellant.

• In the closed cycle, the reaction is entirely shielded from the propellant.
• Autogenous pressurization is the use of self-generated gaseous propellant to pressurize liquid propellant in rockets.
• The first and second DPO circuits are connected through electro-hydraulic actuated valves that enable the transfer of propellant between line in case of failure of one pressurization or propellant storage circuit.
• It was successfully reorbited in June 2010, when most of the on-board propellant depleted, using the remaining propellant and blowdown helium still stored in the propellant tanks.
• Solid propellant rockets are much easier to store and handle than liquid propellant rockets.

• Most forms of artillery require a propellant to propel the projectile at the target.
• The solid propellant nozzleless booster is integrated within the ramcombustor and accelerates the missile to a velocity where the TDR can take over.
• Typically, propellant flows through two kinds of combustion chambers; the first called preburner and the second called main combustion chamber.
