Fluid Dynamics and Numerical Simulation on Cryogenic Jets under Supercritical Pressures

Abstract

Fluid dynamics and numerical simulation on cryogenic jets under supercritical pressures is reviewed in this paper. First of all the mechanism of cryogenic jets under a supercritical pressure is discussed through the recent study. Then the evaluation of thermal and transport properties of gases is described. The recent important tasks of the combustion models and numerical methods are discussed. Finally the examples of the numerical simulations are presented to show the mixing feature of the planar and coaxial jets under supercritical pressures.
