A comprehensive numerical analysis has been conducted to explore the development of liquid-oxygen (LOX) flow in pressure swirl injectors operating at supercritical pressures. The model is based on full-conservation laws and accommodates real-fluid thermodynamics transport phenomena over entire range fluid states concern. Three different regimes with distinct characteristics, developing, stationary, accelerating regimes, are identified within injector. Results compared predictions from...

An improved preconditioning scheme incorporating a unified treatment of general fluid thermodynamics is developed for treating flows over the entire regime thermodynamic states at all speeds. All and numerical properties (such as eigenvalues Jacobian matrices) are derived directly from fundamental theories, rendering self-consistent robust algorithm. Further efficiency obtained by employing temperature instead enthalpy primary dependent variable in preconditioned energy equation. No...

Insulated rail joints are designed in a similar way to butt jointed steel structural systems, the difference being purpose made gap between main members maintain electrical insulation for proper functioning of track circuitry at all times train operation. When loaded wheels pass gap, they induce an impact loading with corresponding strains railhead edges exceeding plastic limit significantly, which lead metal flow across thereby increasing risk short circuiting and impeding signalling broken...

A comprehensive theoretical/numerical framework has been established to treat the combustion of liquid oxygen (LOX) and methane under supercritical conditions. The model accounts for detailed LOX/methane reaction mechanisms, accommodates effect scalar dissipation on finite-rate chemistry. Turbulence closure is achieved by a large-eddy simulation technique.
