Abstract

A method of regulating pressure within a first propellant tank of a rocket engine having a first propellant tank containing a first propellant and a second propellant tank containing a second propellant, and a regulator device for regulating pressure within the first tank, the regulator device comprising a gas generator and a heat exchanger co-operating with the gas generator so as to vaporize at least part of the first propellant prior to reintroducing it into the first tank (), the gas generator and the heat exchanger both being fed with the first propellant by a single first motor-driven pump, while the gas generator is fed with the second propellant by a single second motor-driven pump, wherein the flow rate of the first motor-driven pump is controlled as a function of a first parameter, while the flow rate of the second motor-driven pump is controlled as a function of a second parameter.
