The present paper reviews recent achievements in numerical modeling of super-and
transcritical injection processes during the last 20 years. First, it provides an overview of …

The injection of cryogenic fluids into environments where the prevailing conditions are
supercritical in comparison to the critical point of the injected cryogenic fluid is encountered …

We present a novel framework for high-fidelity simulations of inert and reacting sprays at
transcritical conditions with highly accurate and computationally efficient models for complex …

A fundamental understanding and simulation of fuel atomization, phase transition, and
mixing are among the topics researchers have struggled with for decades. One of the …

Spurious pressure oscillations are a numerical instability that is commonly observed in
multiphase and multicomponent flow problems near the critical point. A diffuse-interface …

A two-phase, low-Mach-number flow solver is created and verified for variable-density liquid
and gas with phase change. The interface is sharply captured using a split volume-of-fluid …

Modeling and simulation of injection, mixing, and combustion of liquid fuels or oxidizers at
supercritical pressures involves many complications beyond the challenges that already …

The mixing dynamics of injected propellants is a key factor in determining the ignition
performance and combustion-instability response of rocket engines, internal combustion …

Because operating pressures of many modern combustion systems approach or exceed the
thermodynamic critical pressure of the working fluids, developing the requisite scientific …

The focus of this study is on developing high-fidelity models and simulations for fully
turbulent highpressure flows. To this end, two Large Eddy Simulation (LES) models are …
