Abstract:The paper presents the results of experimental studies of the processes of emptying the fuel tanks of spacecraft liquid rocket propulsion systems at the final stages of free (undisturbed) flight in tanks with innertank capillary devices (IT CD). On the basis of the analysis of the emptying process, the dimensionless complex structure is formed. The complexes determine the dependence of the residual propellant on the physical properties of the propellant and the parameters of the IT CD. Experimental studies wer… Show more
