| This topical area addresses the development of advanced
technologies for the propulsion of aircraft and spacecraft. Research encompasses virtually
every type of aerospace propulsion system, including gas-turbine engines, ramjets,
scramjets, and rockets. Particular emphasis is placed in the areas of turbomachinery,
spray combustion, combustion instability, innovative engine cycles, and compressible
turbulent mixing. Advanced computational and experimental methodologies are employed. |
