  Expander cycle (rocket) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In an expander cycle, the fuel is heated before it is combusted, usually with waste heat from the main combustion chamber.
Because of the necessary phase change, the expander cycle is best used with cryogenic fuels such as hydrogen, methane, or propane, which can easily reach their boiling point.
In an open, or "bleed" expander cycle, only some of the fuel is heated to drive the turbines, which is then vented to atmosphere to increase turbine efficiency.

He was up front in admitting that Aladdin had made mistakes in their StuffIt upgrade, but he stressed that the Expander upgrade was completely free and none of the problems I encountered were designed to force me to buy a commerical version.
