The purpose of this paper is to give an overview of the main results obtained on instabilities
and pressure oscillations in segmented solid rocket motors. A major part of this work was …

THE present work attempts to explore the development of the internal owfi eld in a porous
chamber with surface transpiration, as shown schematically in Fig. 1. The term …

A time-resolved numerical analysis of combustion dynamics of double-base homogenous
solid propellant in a rocket motor is performed by means of a Large-Eddy Simulation (LES) …

This paper investigates the Parietal Vortex Shedding (PVS) instability that significantly
influences the Pressure Oscillations of the long and segmented solid rocket motors. The …

In solid rocket motors, the internal flow depends strongly on the alumina droplets, which
have a high mass fraction. The droplet size distribution, which is wide and spreads up with …

Planar laser-induced fluorescence on atomic iron is investigated in this paper, and a
measurement strategy is proposed to monitor the fluorescence of iron atoms with good …

In this study, a three-dimensional numerical simulation of a large length-diameter ratio solid
rocket motor is carried out using the large-eddy simulation. Pressure oscillation excited by …

This paper presents a characterization of the laminar-turbulent transition in a cold flow setup,
representative of the flow in a solid rocket motor. Recent developments based on a linear …

HYBRID rockets are attracting much attention these days due to their well-known safety and
low development cost. However, to be effectively applied in a wide range of propulsion …

In this theoretical study, we use linear stability analysis to investigate the cause of parietal
vortex shedding in Taylor–Culick flow, which is representative of the flow in solid rocket …
