Determination of a Two Variable Approximation Function with Application to the Fuel Combustion Charts

Journal Title: INCAS BULLETIN - Year 2017, Vol 9, Issue 3

Abstract

Following the demands of the design and performance analysis in case of liquid fuel propelled rocket engines, as well as the trajectory optimization, the development of efficient codes, which frequently need to call the Fuel Combustion Charts, became an important matter. This paper presents an efficient solution to the issue; the author has developed an original approach to determine the non-linear approximation function of two variables: the chamber pressure and the nozzle exit pressure ratio. The numerical algorithm based on this two variable approximation function is more efficient due to its simplicity, capability to providing numerical accuracy and prospects for an increased convergence rate of the optimization codes.
