DETERMINATION OF THE COMBUSTION CHAMBER LENGTH NECESSARY FOR COMPLETE FUEL COMBUSTION TAKING INTO ACCOUNT FRICTION OF GAS FLOW DURING ITS MOTION,

Abstract

Methods of calculating the length of a combustion chamber previously developed by Talantov and Il'yashenko did not allow for friction. In this article a method of calculating the heat release, flow velocity, and temperature as a function of chamber length with allowance for friction is presented. It was shown that for chambers having a relative length of 1/d is greater than 3, where 1 is the length and d the chamber diameter, the heat release, flow velocity, and temperature values calculated without the effect of friction are higher than the actual values.
