Model-Based Robust Transient Control of Reusable Liquid-Propellant Rocket Engines

Hybrid-Knowledge-Models-Based Intelligent Fault Diagnosis Strategies for Liquid-propellant Rocket Engines

This paper focuses on a qualitative fault diagnosis method based on the integration and fusion of shallow and deep knowledge for liquid-propellant rocket engines (LRE). The paper firstly clarifies the concept and the types of LRE diagnosis knowledge. Later, from the isomorphic transform point of view, the paper analyses the correlation of different knowledge and knowledge representation, and fo...

Dispersion of Toxic Exhausts from Liquid Rocket Propellant Combustion 25 Dispersion of Toxic Exhausts from Liquid Rocket Propellant Combustion

Environmental impact assessment of liquid rocket motor exhaust obtained due to mainly liquid propellant combustion have been highlighted. Exhaust product analysis has been carried out theoretically by computer software NASA CEC -71 to identify toxic emissions of rocket combustion. In the present study a high volume Air Samplers (APM-430) was deployed at predetermined locations near launch pad f...

A critical review of solid rocket propellant transient flame models

A critical review is offered of the commonly implemented flame models for computing transient burning rates and intrinsic combustion stability of solid rocket propellants. After illustrating merits and limitations of each, a new flame model is described, by means of a unified mathematical formalism, incorporatin all of the and closer agreement with experimental information is enforced. #he gene...
