michael Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Google is your friend just search Rocket Tutorial Houdini you'll get a few hits - including this one - it's a bit old but it should give you some place to start Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atom Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 (edited) Here is a simple setup to emulate that. Three circles are inside the 3 tubes. The circles are emitters for the Billowy Smoke preset. The smoke collides with the tubes and the ground. I always wondered why rocket engine tubes did not melt. What are they made of? ap_rocket_lift_off.hiplc Edited September 28, 2016 by Atom 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I know in case of space shuttle there is a very dense pipe system inside them, filled with their own fuel which keeps them cool.
