Droplet size and velocity measurements in a cryogenic jet flame of a rocket-type combustor using high speed imaging [PDF]
Injectors of cryogenic liquid rocket engines produce large polydisperse and dense sprays due to the pressure and mass flow conditions. Atomization is the dominating process that drives the flame behaviour in cryogenic jet flames, when the propellants are injected in subcritical conditions.

Reduced Order Modeling Framework for Combustor Instabilities Using Truncated Domain Training [PDF]
A multi-fidelity framework is established and demonstrated for prediction of combustion instabilities in rocket engines. The major idea is to adapt appropriate fidelity modeling approaches for different components in a rocket engine to ensure accurate and efficient predictions.

Atomization and dense-fluid breakup regimes in liquid rocket engines
Until recently, modern theory has lacked a fundamentally based model to predict the operating pressures where classical sprays transition to dense-fluid mixing with diminished surface tension.

Model Rocket Project for Aerospace Engineering Course: Trajectory Simulation and Propellant Analysis [PDF]
Model rockets have been employed in student projects, but very few papers in aerospace education offer concise summaries of activities at university-course levels. This paper aims to address this gap in the literature. The rockets used by our students reached some 500 m (~1,640 feet) in altitude, deployed a parachute, and spent 2-3 minutes descending ...

A numerical model to predict unsteady cavitating flow behaviour in inducer blade cascades [PDF]
The cavitation behaviour of a four-blade rocket engine turbopump inducer is simulated. A 2D numerical model of unsteady cavitation was applied to a blade cascade drawn fromthe inducer geometry. The physical model is based on a homogeneous approach of cavitation, coupled with a barotropic state law for the liquid/vapour mixture.
