Novel model for emptying of a self-pressurised nitrous oxide tank
Abstract:Nitrous oxide is often used in the space industry, as an oxidiser or monopropellant, mostly in self-pressurised configurations. It has potential for growth in use due to the recent rising interest in green propellants. At the same time, modelling the behaviour of a self-pressurising nitrous oxide tank is a challenging task, and few accurate numerical models are currently available. Two-phase flow, heat transfer and rapid changes of mass and temperature in the investigated system all increase the difficulty of … Show more
