This study investigates the potential of a newly released multi-phase solver to simulate atomisation in an air-blast type atomiser. The 'VOF-to-DPM' solver was used to simulate primary and secondary atomisation in an atomiser with a coaxial injector-like geometry. The solver uses a hybrid Eulerian/Eulerian-Lagrangian formulation with...

A subscale, research rocket thrust chamber operating with cryogenic oxygen and hydrogen exhibits self-excited transverse-mode instabilities with amplitudes of more than 80% of the steady combustion chamber pressure (peak-to-peak) for some operating conditions. During unstable combustion, an increase in the integral heat flux into the water...

Since there is a high interest in the use of green propellants, hydrogen peroxide is coming back after once making place for the rise of Hydrazine in monopropellant propulsion systems. Typically, these thrusters are outfitted with catalyst beds. A fully modular 1N thruster is designed to provide the capability of testing and comparing the...

In the last decade, CubeSat development has shown the potential to allow for low-risk, low-cost space missions. To further improve the capabilities of CubeSats in large scale missions, a novel micro-propulsion system is being developed at Delft University of Technology. The system is based on a Vaporizing Liquid Microthruster (VLM), which is...

This paper presents a dynamic system approach for the modeling of fluid flow in microchannels to be used in thrust control applications. A micro-resistojet fabricated using MEMS (Microelectromechanical Systems) technology has been selected for the analysis. The device operates by vaporizing a liquid propellant, in this case water, and expelling...

This paper presents the development work of the 10 kN hybrid rocket motor DHX-200 Aurora. The DHX-200 Aurora was developed by Delft Aerospace Rocket Engineering (DARE) to power the Stratos II and Stratos II+ sounding rocket, with the later one being launched in October 2015. Stratos II and Stratos II+ are the flagship projects of DARE, a student...

The work focusses on the use of multidisciplinary optimization to design a cost optimized airborne nanosatellite launch vehicle capable of bringing a 10 kg payload into low earth orbit (LEO). Piggyback or shared launch options currently available for nanosatellites are relatively low cost (~45,000 €/kg) but have as serious disadvantage a limited...

Erosion of the acceleration channel is the main lifetime limiting factor for Hall Effect Thrusters (HETs). Impacting ions damage the wall insulation that protects the magnetic circuitry from the plasma. To improve HET technology, it is necessary to simulate plasma behavior inside the channel, and associated erosion rates. This work presents a 2...
