A typical unsteady internal ballistic analysis model was proposed to take account the erosive burning with the variance of local velocity and pressure along grain surface to the axis of a solid rocket combustor. The model introduced in this study showed good agreements with the results of previous research. It was investigated that the combustion pressure, grain length, initial temperature, and vaporization temperature of propellant affect on the erosive burning.

The turbulent mixing and combustion of a shear coaxial injector under supercritical pressures have been theoretically/numerically investigated. Turbulent numerical model is based on large eddy simulation with real-fluid transport and thermodynamics over the entire pressure; Soave modification of Redlich-Kwong equation of state, Chung's model for viscosity/conductivity, and Fuller's theorem for diffusivity to take account Takahashi's compressible effect. The results are compared with previous researcher's. The large-scale vortices shedding from the outer rim into the recirculation region to react with gaseous oxygen was investigated.

Liquid rocket injectors play crucial roles on propulsive performance, combustion stability, and heat transfer characteristics. Nevertheless, their developments have mainly relied on empirical methods and expensive hot-firing tests due to lack of fundamental understanding of high pressure combustion phenomena in the near-injector regions. The present study was motivated by recent efforts to develop reliable modeling of liquid rocket combustion. The turbulent combustion model based on the flamelet concept has been extended to take into account real-fluid behaviors occurred at supercritical pressures, and validated against measurements for a cryogenic nitrogen injection, a non-premixed turbulent jet flame at atmospheric pressure, and a LOx/$GH_2$ coaxial shear injector at a supercritical pressure.

Large eddy simulation of turbulent premixed flame stabilized by the bluff body is performed by using sub-grid scale combustion model based on the G-equation describing the flame front propagation. The basic idea of LES modeling is to evaluate the filtered-front speed, which should be enhanced in the grid scale by the scale fluctuations. The dynamic subgrid scale models newly introduced into the G-equation are validated by the premixed combustion flow behind the triangle flame holder. The calculated results can predict the velocity and temperature of the combustion flow in good agreement with the experiment data.

The present work suggests a numerical approach using a thermoacoustic network model for the eigenvalue calculation of thermoacoustic instability problems in an aero gas turbine combustor. The model is developed based on the conservation laws for mass, momentum, and energy between acoustic network elements with an area change. Acoustic field in a practical aero gas turbine combustor which has a complicated flow path is analyzed using the current model. The predictive capabilities of the current modeling approach are compared with the acoustic characteristics calculated using Helmholtz solver based on 3D finite element method(FEM).

차량에 사용되는 무시동 히터 열교환기의 효율 개선을 위하여 열전달 해석을 수행하였다. 연구에 사용된 히터는 연료 공급관을 통해 연소부로 연료를 공급하고 연소시켜, 열교환기에 열을 전달한다. 열전달 효율을 증대시키기 위하여 열전달면 및 연소면의 형상을 해석적으로 개발하였다. 개선된 열교환기 모델은 외부 형상을 기존 제품과 동일하게 설계하여 단품상으로 교체가 가능하도록 설계 하였다. 해석 결과 기존 모델에 대비 개선된 모델에서 열전달 효율이 약 5.6배 향상되었다.

In order to provide a useful data of combustion chamber design, a numerical analysis for spray combustion of fuel and oxidizer in combustion chamber has been conducted. As a spray model, the DSF model and the Euler-Lagrange scheme have been used. The change of droplet temperature has been calculated considering droplet heating. The coupling effects between and the gas phase the droplets, and between the gas phase and the evaporated vapor have been calculated using the PSIC model.

This paper provides a description of the combustion model to obtain an accurate dynamic engine phenomena that satisfies real-time simulation for model-based engine control. The combustion chamber is modeled as a storage device for mass and energy. The combustion process is modeled in terms of a two-zone model for the burned and unburned gas fractions. The mass fraction burnt is modeled in terms of a Wiebe function. The instantaneous net engine torque is calculated from the engine speed and the instantaneous piston work. The modeling accuracy has been tested with a cylinder pressure data on a test bench and also the ability of real-time simulation has been checked. The results show that combustion model yields sufficiently good performance for the model-based control logic design. However the influence factors effected on model accuracy are some room for improvement.

Macroscopic combustion models used in gun interior ballistic codes are discussed and experimental methods to measure propellant burning rate are reviewed. Comparing with gun firing results, the limit of combustion model is shown and modified combustion model is proposed. But combustion model should be selected with respect to total gun system including propellants.

Combustion-stability rating of impinging-jet injector is conducted numerically using hot-fire simulation in a subscale chamber with the five-element injector head. A sample F(fuel)-O(dxidizer)-O-F impinging-jet injector is adopted. In this work, instantaneous chemical reaction is adopted for hot-fire simulation based on the assumption that mixing process of fuel and oxidizer streams is controlling. The model chamber was designed based on the methodologies proposed in the previous work regarding geometrical dimensions and operating conditions. The present stability boundaries are in a good agreement with air-injection and hot-fire experimental data. The proposed numerical method can be applied cost-effectively to stability rating of jet injectors when mixing of fuel and oxidizer jets is the dominant process in instability triggering.
