Computational Identification and Stuart-Landau Modeling of Collective Dynamical Behaviors of Octuple Laminar Diffusion Flame Oscillators [PDF]
Annular chambers, consisting of multiple flame nozzles, are frequently used in many industrial processes, for example, rocket engines and gas turbines. In the study, we proposed a novel approach to the problem of annular combustion with emphasis on the collective dynamical behaviors that its individuals do not have.

Molecular Dynamics Study of the Sonic Horizon of Microscopic Laval Nozzles [PDF]
A Laval nozzle can accelerate expanding gas above supersonic velocities, while cooling the gas in the process. This work investigates this process for microscopic Laval nozzles by means of non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations of statioary flow, using grand canonical Monte-Carlo particle reservoirs.

Supersonic flow of two-phase gas- droplet flows in nozzles
For practical applications, the description of processes occurring during the flow of two-phase gas-liquid mixtures requires a simple physical and mathematical model that describes the behavior of a two-phase medium in the entire range of phase ...

Theoretical prediction of high melting temperature for a Mo–Ru–Ta–W HCP multiprincipal element alloy
While rhenium is an ideal material for rapid thermal cycling applications under high temperatures, such as rocket engine nozzles, its high cost limits its widespread use and prompts an exploration of viable cost-effective substitutes.

Aerodynamic Design of a Laval Nozzle for Real Gas Using Hodograph Method
We propose an approach for the design of the subsonic part of plane and axisymmetric Laval nozzles for real gases. The proposed approach is based on the hodograph method and allows one to solve the inverse design problem directly.

A computational model for the design of a nitrous oxide--paraffin wax hybrid rocket engine [PDF]
A computational model is developed to assist the design of the first hybrid rocket engine of the McGill Rocket Team, using liquid nitrous oxide as an oxidizer and solid paraffin wax as a fuel. The model is developed in three phases: In the first phase, a steady-state model which neglects transient performance decrease of the hybrid engine is considered.

Shock-Structure Formation in Circular and Non-Circular Sonic Jets at Underexpanded Conditions [PDF]
The generation of shock waves and their repercussions in high-speed vehicles are inevitable. Particularly, the hot plume from the aircraft exhaust ejecting at a high speed, as well as the emitted aeroacoustic noise, have several consequences.
