Analysis of a Stator-Rotor-Stator Spinning Disk Reactor in Single-Phase and Two-Phase Boiling Conditions Using a Thermo-Fluid Flow Network and CFD

Fluids, 2022
Cryogenic liquid propellants are used in liquid rocket engines to obtain high specific impulse. The flow rates are controlled by turbopumps that deliver liquid propellant to the engine at high pressure levels.

Influence of surface roughness on the heat transfer coefficient of fluids in an additively manufactured supercharger

Вестник Самарского университета: Аэрокосмическая техника, технологии и машиностроение, 2022
The supercharger is intended for heating a fluid (gaseous helium or gaseous nitrogen) used for the pressurization of fuel tanks of oxidizer and propellant of a rocket engine. The fluid is heated with the generator gas downstream the turbine.

Afterburning effect on thermal environment of four-engine liquid rockets at different altitudes

Engineering Applications of Computational Fluid Mechanics, 2021
The liquid rocket propellant burns inadequately in the combustion chamber; therefore, the exhaust gas reacts with oxygen and the heat that was generated, which in turn affects the thermal environment.

Prediction of dynamic loads on spacecraft in the active light of the launch vehicle using the results of liquid-propellant rocket engine fire tests

Technical mechanics
In orbital injection, the launch vehicle (LV) structure and the spacecraft are subjected to extreme dynamic loads, in particular to vibroacoustic loads (from rocket engine thrust oscillations and aerodynamic loads), which may cause spacecraft ...

Feline‐Inspired Robot Enabled by Combustion‐Driven Actuators for Agile Motion and High‐Payload Obstacle Traversal

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Inspired by nature's competitive maneuvers, this study introduces a combustion‐driven soft actuator that powers a multi‐modal “Jump‐and‐Fly Catbot” (JFC). With millisecond response, high‐force output (over 70 times its weight) and precise control (error within 5%), the robot can jump, fly, hover, and escape from challenging environments, achieving ...
