Investigation of injector system and gas generator propellant for aft-injected hybrid propulsion

“…As mentioned above, the governing equations are transform ed into the RANS equations to predict turbulence. This is done by decomposing the instantaneous In the implem entation of CFX, term s VII and VIII are omitted [16]. For the Reynolds fluxes they are linearly related to the mean scalar gradient.…”
