Numerical Design Investigation of a Hydro-Mechanical Pulsator for Rocket Motor Injector Dynamics Research

Abstract: Understanding injector dynamics in the presence of strong pressure pulsations in Liquid Fueled Rocket Engines (LFRE) is important due to its strong association with the combustion instability phenomena. Lack of generators of strong periodical pulsations, particularly in the high frequency range, is problematic. To overcome this deficiency, a hydro-mechanical pulsator has been built to generate controlled periodic pressure oscillation, which simulates pressure pulsations in the feed lines of rocket motor inject… Show more

“…The understanding of the internal flow dynamics phenomena occurring in an injector is important due to their strong association with the atomisation process and consequently with the combustion process (Balasubramanyam et al, 2010). However, observing the flow in diesel injectors is very difficult as they are characterised by high pressure injections through very small nozzles with diameters of around 100 microns or less.…”

“…If the spray of fuel is in such a way that finer particles of fuel are formed, the combustion reaction will be speeded up, motor torque and efficiency will improve, and pollutants in exhaust emission will be reduced. Hence, it is very important to carry out research in order to better understand the flow dynamics inside the injector and the behavior of spray jet (Balasubramanyam et al, 2010). One of the most important parts of diesel engines is the injector nozzle.…”
