Download or read book Fundamental Concepts of Liquid Propellant Rocket Engines written by Alessandro de Iaco Veris and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-09-26 with total page 747 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is intended for students and engineers who design and develop liquid-propellant rocket engines, offering them a guide to the theory and practice alike. It first presents the fundamental concepts (the generation of thrust, the gas flow through the combustion chamber and the nozzle, the liquid propellants used, and the combustion process) and then qualitatively and quantitatively describes the principal components involved (the combustion chamber, nozzle, feed systems, control systems, valves, propellant tanks, and interconnecting elements). The book includes extensive data on existing engines, typical values for design parameters, and worked-out examples of how the concepts discussed can be applied, helping readers integrate them in their own work. Detailed bibliographical references (including books, articles, and items from the “gray literature”) are provided at the end of each chapter, together with information on valuable resources that can be found online. Given its scope, the book will be of particular interest to undergraduate and graduate students of aerospace engineering.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research was directed towards developing new knowledge of combustion processes in liquid-propellant rocket engines. Attention was given to the combustion of different fuels, beginning with hydrogenoxygen but ultimately including multicomponent hydrocarbon mixtures representative of RP fuels, and to nonlinear processes of importance in combustion instability. Effects of detailed chemical kinetics on performance and stability were addressed by introducing systematically reduced chemistry that enables theoretical analyses to be completed thoroughly and accurately. The interactions between chemistry and turbulence were addressed, including the effects of the heat release on the turbulence. The orientation of the work was fundamental and aimed at predicting not only performance and acoustic response but also intrinsic instability. The results were intended to help to improve understanding of combustion mechanisms and combustion instabilities in liquid-propellant rocket motors. The most recent specific results concern induction times in hydrogen-oxygen mixtures and heat-release effects on turbulent mixing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book intends to build a bridge for the student and the young engineer: to link the rocket propulsion fundamentals and elements (which are well covered in the literature) with the actual rocket engine design and development work as it is carried out in industry (which is very little, if at all covered in literature). The book attempts to further the understanding of the realistic application of liquid rocket propulsion theories, and to help avoid or at least reduce time and money consuming errors and disappointments. In so doing, it also attempts to digest and consolidate numerous closely related subjects, hitherto often treated as separate, bringing them up to date at the same time.

Download or read book Fundamental Studies of Rocket Combustion Chemistry and Combustion Instability written by and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report provides a summary of results obtained over the past year in fundamental studies of the chemistry of solid rocket combustion and of combustion instability in liquid rocket combustion. A coordinated research program has been initiated to study separate aspects of the complex multidimensional, multiphase and multicomponent reacting flow characteristic of rocket combustion. The focus of the combustion chemistry studies is on flame reactions of gas phase species formed as decomposition products near the surface of the propellant. These flames typically involve a variety of fuel species and nitrogen oxides as oxidizers. The focus of the combustion instability studies is the effect of atomization and vaporization processes on the oscillatory conditions characteristic of combustion instability. The research objectives, progress and research in progress in each of these areas are summarized in the report. Rocket Combustion, Combustion Chemistry, Combustion Instability, Droplet Vaporization.
