A turbopump is a type of pump used in various applications, particularly in rocket propulsion systems, to move fluids at high pressures and flow rates. It combines a turbine and a pump into a single unit, leveraging the mechanical energy from the turbine to drive the pump. In rocket engines, turbopumps are critical components that transfer propellants (liquid fuel and oxidizers) from the tanks to the combustion chamber at high pressures.
