Abstract
The intense wall heat loads occurring in high-performance liquid rocket engines can be predicted during the design phase with accurate and computationally lean numerical simulations of the conjugate heat transfer between the cooling channels and the combustion chamber. This paper shows the methodological approach for predicting coolant temperatures of the T(H)RUST team at Sapienza University of Rome, and a comparison with the experimental data of a methane-oxygen engine provided by AvioI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
