Development of a generic combustion stability code for liquid propellant rocket engines

The mathematical framework for a combustion stability analysis code is outlined. The goal for the code is to be general enough in problem treatment so that its validity and accuracy extend over a wide range of problem applications and that it lends the convenience for any future model improvement if necessary. An approach for modeling the combustion dynamics is devised to meet both requirements. An open-loop numerical procedure is also developed to mechanistically model various combustion processes for determining the stability parameters.

Longitudinal mode combustion instabilities of a high-pressure fuel-rich LOX/RP-1 preburner

During the hot-fire testing of a high-pressure fuel-rich LOX/RP-1 preburner, longitudinal mode combustion instabilities were observed. The experimental data showing how the instability varied with the chamber pressure, mixture ratio, chamber length and turbulence ring are given. Technical rationales are given for the test-to-test hardware configuration changes that eventually led to the stable result.
