1. 1. Evaluating the Performance of Propulsion System Elements in an Aerospace Company

   Master-uppsats, KTH/Kraft- och värmeteknologi

   Författare :David Fredouelle; [2023]
   Nyckelord :Turbomachinery; injector; test campaign; cryogenic; rocket engine; test bench; cold flow; Turbomaskin; injektor; testkampanj; kryogen; raketmotor; testbänk; kallt flöde;

   Sammanfattning : This paper examines two examples of testing activities of sub-components of a 300kN methalox first-stage rocket engine developed by Pangea Aerospace, namely, theinjectors and the cryogenic pumps. One of the difficulties of these test campaignsis to evaluate the performances of these sub-components without using cryogenicpropellants and in conditions differing from flight conditions. LÄS MER

3. 2. Preliminary Design of a 30 kN Methane-Oxygen-powered Electric-Pump-fed Liquid Rocket Propulsion System

   Master-uppsats, Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

   Författare :Vikramjeet Das; [2023]
   Nyckelord :rocket engine; liquid rocket; methalox; electropump; LRPS; LPRE; liquid methane; electric pump feed system;

   Sammanfattning : The design of a liquid rocket propulsion system, unlike that of a standalone system, is intertwined with the overall development of a number of associated systems and is influenced by a multitude of conditions and considerations: from the requirements needed to accomplish the mission to the rationalizations involved behind the development of each rocket system and/or component. In my thesis, the preliminary design of a “new generation” 30 kN rocket engine driven by an electric pump feed system and running on liquid methane and liquid oxygen is performed. LÄS MER

4. 3. Simulation of Combustion in a Hybrid Rocket Engine

   Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

   Författare :Oscar Andersson; [2023]
   Nyckelord :Thesis; Hybrid Rocket Engine; CFD; computational fluid dynamics; combustion;

   Sammanfattning : A numerical investigation on the combustion mechanics of a hybrid rocket engine is performed through unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes simulation. The hybrid rocket engine model is based on an experimental laboratory scale engine design operating on GOX and HDPE as a propellant. LÄS MER

5. 4. Design of a modular small-scale PMMA/Air hybrid rocket research engine

   Master-uppsats, Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

   Författare :Gustaf von Platen; [2023]
   Nyckelord :hybrid rocket engine; PMMA combustion; rocket engine design; combustion diagnostics; rocket engine; regression rate; preliminary design definition; hybrid rocket engine simulation; gaseous oxidizer; transparent rocket engine;

   Sammanfattning : Rocket propulsion using the hybrid-propellant scheme is a technology that offers much promise in applications where high-performance liquid rocket engines are deemed too complex and solid rocket motors are considered to lack performance or safety. However, despite extensive research, there is still a lack of knowledge in the theoretical aspects of hybrid rocketry, especially in the area of fuel-oxidizer mixing and fuel regression rate.

7. 5. Development and Analysis of a Gaseous Hydrogen-Oxygen Rotating Detonation Combustor

   Master-uppsats, KTH/Kraft- och värmeteknologi

   Författare :Birgir Steinn Hermannsson; [2022]
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Theory suggests that more efficient rocket propulsion can possibly be achievedby utilizing a pressure-gain detonative combustion process instead of conventional deflagration combustion. To demonstrate this, rotating detonation engines that sustain one or several detonation waves in an annular enclosure havebeen a subject of research for decades. LÄS MER
