Modeling Solid-Fuel Ramjet Combustion Including Radiation Heat Transfer to the Fuel Surface.

Abstract

Radiation heat transfer from soot in the flame zone to the fuel surface of a solid fuel ramjet was incorporated into an existing two-dimensional computer code. Improved prediction of the fuel regression pattern was obtained. Near-wall temperature measurements indicated that the model predicts too much turbulent mixing near the fuel surface. (Author)
