Rocket combustion and heat transfer dynamics encompass a range of interlinked phenomena critical to the design and operation of modern rocket engines. The combustion process involves rapidly reacting ...

The local heat fluxes from impinging combusting and evaporating diesel sprays to the wall of a square combustion chamber were measured in a rapid compression machine. It was revealed that the ratio of ...

A new model for convective in-cylinder heat transfer has been developed which calculates heat transfer coefficients based on a description of the in-cylinder flow field. The combustion chamber volume ...

HOT ROD’s archives are chock-full of brilliant tech reports that truly are timeless. This one, drafted by Jim McFarland for our February 1972 issue, provides an extensive look at how important airflow ...
