What combination of Size, Chamber Pressure, and Nozzle Throat size works best to maximize Delta V on a specific rocket? Hope to hear from experts regarding this.

If it’s in space, lower pressure and smaller throat whilst larger nozzle is best @TopSecret2

@plane918273645 Yeah but when you’re constrained to size Nozzle length and size outright can be limiting, so the other variables count especially if you don’t expect to get more than 2500 m/s like making a replica.

It’s dependent, although not really needed because 15km/s is easy to get with almost all combinations
