Rocket Engines (RDRE) have been marketed primarily for their higher specific impulse …

We present a data-driven method for the early detection of thermoacoustic instabilities.
Recurrence quantification analysis is used to calculate characteristic combustion features …

The excitation mechanism of a thermoacoustic instability in a 42-element research rocket
thrust chamber with representative operating conditions with respect to European cryogenic …

Hot fire tests were performed with a newly developed single-injector research combustor
featuring a large optical access (255× 38 mm) for flame imaging. Within these tests the …

Rocket engines are prone to suffer from transverse combustion instabilities, manifesting as
periodic oscillations in pressure and heat release rate. Self-excited transverse instabilities in …

A methane/oxygen mixture is considered to be an appropriate propellant for many future
rocket engines due to its practicality and low cost. To better understand the combustion …

Although fuel spray parameters, such as spray cone angle and penetration length, are
crucial for developing high-efficiency and high-performance combustion engines, general …

A non-premixed methane/air flame under a transverse acoustic mode is studied by
combining theoretical analysis and numerical simulations to understand the acoustic and …

Self-excited combustion instabilities of transverse modes were experimentally investigated
in a rectangular multi-injector model combustor, operating with the bipropellants O 2/CH 4 …

One of the most important parameters influencing the acoustic response of holes that sustain
a low-Mach-number bias flow is their length-to-diameter ratio. For sufficiently short holes, the …
