Multi-Wavelength Laser Opacity Study of a Hybrid Rocket Plume
An instrumentation system was developed to measure the opacity of a hybrid rocket plume as a function of optical wavelength. The source consisted of collineated beams from two lasers, providing seven wavelengths in a single probe beam. Detection was accomplished with a spectrograph equipped with a photodiode array. Previous work with a two-wavelength system demonstrated the ability to follow th...
متن کاملHigh Altitude Plume Simulations for a Solid Propellant Rocket
A simulation scheme is proposed for flowfield and radiation analysis of solid rocket exhaust plumes at high altitude. Several recently developed numerical procedures are used to determine properties of the gas and condensed phase Al2O3 particles, and spectrally resolved plume radiation calculations are performed using a Monte Carlo ray trace model. Simulations are run for a representative plume...
متن کاملModeling The Interaction Between a Rocket Plume, Scoured Regolith, and a Plume Deflection Fence
As a lunar lander approaches the surface, the impinging exhaust gases entrain regolith into a high velocity spray. This two-phase spray can be damaging to nearby structures, such as a lunar outpost. One way of mitigating this damage is to use a berm or fence to shield nearby structures from the dust spray. In this work, we use a coupled continuum – DSMC (direct simulation Monte Carlo) solver to...
متن کاملPlume Temperature Measurements of a Spin-Stabilized Rocket
Rocket plume temperature distribution plays an important role on the heat transfer analysis of launch carriers. Thus, a non-intrusive IR scanner is used in this paper to analyze the influence of spin motion on plume centerline temperature measurements of spinning solid-propellant rockets. Results show that the average error of temperature measurement is below 3.5% even with a 10% error of estim...
متن کاملAnalysis of Numerical Errors in the DSMC Method
The direct simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) method is one of the most popular numerical methods used to model rarefied gas environment flows. In order to predict the accuracy of a solution obtained by the DSMC method we have to be able to estimate its accuracy. In the work presented here we have developed a technique to estimate the numerical accuracy of the DSMC method. This paper presents a deri...
