Studies of High-Pressure Acoustic Combustion Instabilities in Hydrocarbon-Oxygen Liquid-Propellant RocketEngines Based on Reduced Chemical-Kinetic Mechanisms

Abstract

The objective is to conduct a collaborative research that will combine experimental measurements of methane-oxygen systems with numerical and modeling efforts to advance fundamental knowledge pertaining to the interplay of the acoustic field with the reactive flow in hydrocarbon-fueled liquid-propellant rocket engines, enabling the development of advanced modeling tools for predicting the instability behavior.
