Abstract

The numerical simulation, based on computational fluid dynamics methodology, has been performed to study the two-phase turbulent combustion flow in rocket engine using non-metallized multicomponent propellant. A reduced reaction mechanism is developed for modelling combustion of fuel droplets in the absence of metal. Gas governing equations are two dimensional axisymmetric N-S equations in Eulerian coordinates. The trajectory model is adopted to analyse the droplet-phase including the droplet collision, breakup and evaporation. The gas flow is influenced by the droplets by adding source term to N-S equations. The reliability of the simulation programme is validated by comparing numerical simulation result with engine test data.
