Comparing the autoignition performance of chemical kinetic models for toluene using data extracted from the literature

Creator:

Mayer, Morgan

Abstract:

Real transportation fuels contain a wide range of hydrocarbon species, and this complexity poses challenges for modeling. Surrogates with a simpler blend of hydrocarbon reference fuels can approximate the physical and chemical characteristics of real fuels and enable practical simulation of the reacting flows that occur in engines and combustors....

Testing and design procedures for electric propellant pumps for suborbital bi-propellant rockets

Creator:

Verna-Ketel, Dominic

Abstract:

An electrically driven propellant pump (HALE E-Pump) was analysed and tested to determine its viability for use in a bi-propellant launch vehicle for the High-Altitude Liquid Engine (HALE) student rocket team at Oregon State University (OSU). The pump, manufactured in 2022 by students in OSU machine shops, was hydrostatically tested...
