1. Development and characterization of multi-streams heat exchangers for liquefaction cycle analysis in the contextof hydrogen mobility
University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)Abstract : This paper presents the master thesis work done at ArianeGroup on the development and characterization of multi-streams heat exchangers for liquefaction cycle analysis in the context of hydrogen mobility. In 2015, the Paris Agreements aimed at strengthening the global response to the threat of climate change by keeping the temperature rise below 1. READ MORE

2. Conceptualisation, Implementation and Commissioning of a Controlled Pyrolysis Rig : KTH Master Thesis Report
University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)Abstract : Liquid methane has seen popular interest from industry and academia as a next-generation rocket fuel due to its favorable performance characteristics and potential for extra-terrestrial in-situ resource utilisation. Since the rocket combustion chamber and nozzle are subject to high heat loads, regenerative cooling is a standard method to achieve lower temperatures. READ MORE

3. Preliminary Design of a 30 kN Methane-Oxygen-powered Electric-Pump-fed Liquid Rocket Propulsion System
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/RymdteknikAbstract : The design of a liquid rocket propulsion system, unlike that of a standalone system, is intertwined with the overall development of a number of associated systems and is influenced by a multitude of conditions and considerations: from the requirements needed to accomplish the mission to the rationalizations involved behind the development of each rocket system and/or component. In my thesis, the preliminary design of a “new generation” 30 kN rocket engine driven by an electric pump feed system and running on liquid methane and liquid oxygen is performed. READ MORE

4. Design of a modular small-scale PMMA/Air hybrid rocket research engine
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknikAbstract : Rocket propulsion using the hybrid-propellant scheme is a technology that offers much promise in applications where high-performance liquid rocket engines are deemed too complex and solid rocket motors are considered to lack performance or safety. However, despite extensive research, there is still a lack of knowledge in the theoretical aspects of hybrid rocketry, especially in the area of fuel-oxidizer mixing and fuel regression rate.

5. Empirical Verification of an Acoustic Estimation of a Rocket Engine : A Comparison Between Estimated and Measured Noise of a Rocket Engine
University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)Abstract : The noise of a rocket engine is a complex and complicated phenomenon which has been studied for more than half a century [1]. There are many sources to this noise, but due to its great potential impact to the surrounding structures, including the vehicle itself, it is important to have a model to estimate the acoustic environment the engine produces.
