Aero-Acoustic assessment of installed propellers

The volume of general aviation transport is increasing and consequently this gives rise to the need for reducing noise levels while improving or at least maintaining the same level of aerodynamic performance. This can be...

Numerical investigation of a new LH2 centrifugal pump concept used in space propulsion

The present study deals with efficiency increase of a centrifugal pump for liquid rocket propulsion by using an innovative concept. With this new pump design the axial length will be reduced by 60% and 20% mass weight to...

Investigation on Characterizing Heated Pulsating Flows with Hot Wire Anemometers - A Hands-On Approach

The pulsating heated flows are traditionally a difficult subject to treat with conventional hot wire or film methods. Special factors that complicate matters are flow reversal and non linear flow effects of vortices and...

Reducing Fuel Consumption in Bucharest Terminal Area for Flights Using a Standard Instrument Departure

Reconfiguration of the standard instrument departure and standard arrival routes at certain airports can bring significant reductions in fuel consumption and level of noise. This can be done either by implementing modern...
