The oxygen-hydrogen chamber for a thruster (100 N) designing by numerical simulation of mixing and combustion processes

Abstract

The ANSYS CFX application by the designing chamber thruster on perspective hydrogen-oxygen fuel enabled through the numerical simulation defined high-effective chamber design. In this case was excluded lengthy and expensive stage experimental testing of different design options. The chamber was made, and implemented fire tests, which resulted the maximum attainable for thrusters chambers energy characteristics.
