Laminar flows involving chemical reactions play an important role in many practical applications. In this work a three-dimensional simulation dedicated to solving the Navier-Stokes equations in the low-Mach number limit is presented, using detailed chemistry and detailed transport. A complex three-dimensional configuration of a laminar methane/air burner is considered. Thanks to efficient numer...

hen Pope Francis announced the Extraordinary Jubilee Year of Mercy in March 2015, I must confess I placed that piece of information on the back burner. The beginning of the jubilee was several months away, and details were forthcoming. I knew it would be a special time for reflection and renewal, but at the time I was not thinking of the jubilee’s broader implications for the Catholic health mi...

In this work, we assess the impact of stepped hybrid rocket solid fuel grains on performance engine. The influence Forward Facing Steps (FFS) and Backward (BFS) regression rate is analysed two different cylindrical motors one slab burner with optical access. Accessible post-processing allows to quantify local profiles induced by steps for motors. For burner, novel image processing approaches en...
