The baffle is a practical and promising passive damping method of dissipating acoustic
energy and increasing acoustic losses in a solid rocket motor (SRM). In this study, numerical …

Combustion instability has long been one of the severe problems suffered by solid rocket
motors (SRMs). Currently, acoustic instability is one of the most widely researched …

Cold gas scale model experiments (1/30) demonstrate that coupling of vortex shedding with
acoustic standing waves can produce pressure oscillations of the same level as observed in …

Combustion of aluminum droplets released by the solid propellant is widely used to increase
the thrust in solid rocket motors. The combustion dynamics of the released droplet cloud in …

Indirect noise due to the interaction of flow inhomogeneities with a choked nozzle is an
important cause of combustion instability in solid rocket motors and is believed to be …

The combustion of composite solid propellants shows velocity fluctuations which are
expected to have marked effects on turbulence or aeroacoustic instabilities. In this work, we …

A typical modern solid rocket motor (SRM) consists of an outer graphite epoxy filament
wound casing, a lowdensity rubber internal insulation, such as polybutadiene and an …
