Due to current and future environmental and safety issues in space propulsion, typical
propellants for upper stage or satellite rocket engines such as the toxic hydrazine are going …

During the start-up of the propulsion system of a spacecraft, the filling of an evacuated
pipeline, a process known as priming, can generate severe pressure peaks due to the slam …

A transient, thermodynamic flow model is developed to simulate pressure oscillations in
cryogenic fluid occurring due to sudden closing of valves, a phenomenon commonly known …

During the start-up of the propulsion system of a satellite or spacecraft, the opening of the
tank isolation valve will cause the propellant to flow into an evacuated feedline and slam …

The book examines special phenomena that accompany cavitation. Includes subjects such
as the changing of thermophysical properties, the effect of a cavitating fluid on solid …

During the start-up of the propulsion system of a satellite or spacecraft, the opening of the
tank isolation valve will cause the propellant to flow into an evacuated feedline and slam …

The objective of the present study is to generate a reliable experimental database on the
fluid hammer phenomenon with real propellants (MMH and NTO) to validate the physical …

Since its foundation in 2011 and among other things, OHB Sweden has been appointed to
fully develop, from the design to the assembly, a yearly increasing number of propulsion …
