Liquid Jet in Swirling Cross Flow
Liquid jets in cross flows (JICF) have been an important part of spray research in the last few decades owing to the wide spectrum of applications ranging from agricultural sprays to aircraft gas turbine engines. However, ... -
Microgravity Flow Transients in the Context of On-Board Propellant Gauging
(2018-02-15)It is well known that surface tension of a liquid has a decisive role in flow dynamics and the eventual equilibrium state, especially in confined flows under low gravity conditions and also in free surface flows. One such ... -
Momentum And Enthalpy Transfer In Packed Beds - Experimental Evaluation For Unsteady Inlet Temperature At High Reynolds Numbers
(2013-06-10)Solid propellant gas generators that have high gas capacity are used for fast pressurization of inflatable devices or elastic shells. However, many applications such as control surface actuation, air bottle pressurization ... -
Onboard Propellant Gauging For Spacecraft
(2009-08-04)Estimation of the total mission life of a spacecraft is an important issue for the communication satellite industries. For accurate determination of the remaining mission life of the satellite it is essential to estimate ... -
Parametric Analysis Of A Free Piston Stirling Engine For Spacecraft Power Applications With A Radioisotope Heat Source
(2014-07-11)Stirling engines are promising candidates for applications where air breathing engines cannot be used. Self contained engines capable of operating independently of the environment are required to convert thermal energy ... -
Studies On Impinging-Jet Atomizers
(2009-05-06)Characteristics of impinging-jet atomizers in the context of application in liquid propulsion systems are studied in this thesis. A review of past studies on impinging jets revealed the necessity of a correlation in terms ... -
