Numerical Simulation of Cryogenic Injection in Rocket Engine Combustion Chambers

The numerical simulation of cryogenic combustion is crucial for a better understanding of the complex physics involved in reactive flows of rocket engines and to help to reduce the development cost of these engines. The focus of this study is set on the oxidizer injection and its dispersion through jet dense core destabilization and atomization or supercritical mixing. Specific models have been...

Numerical Simulation of Combustion with Porous Medium in I.C. Engine

Porous media has interesting features in compared with free flame combustion due to the extended of the lean flammability limits and lower emissions. Advanced new generation of internal combustion (IC) engines are expected to have far better emissions levels both gaseous and particulate matter, at the same time having far lower fuel consumption on a wide range of operating condition. These c...

Derivation of Specific Heat Rejection Correlation in an SI Engine; Experimental and Numerical Study

The thermal balance analysis is a useful method to determine energy distribution and efficiency of internal combustion (IC) engines. In engines cooling concepts, estimation of heat transfer to brake power ratio, as one of the most significant performance characteristics, is highly demanded. In this paper, investigation of energy balance and derivation of specific heat rejection is carried out e...
