I am happy to note that The Aeronautical Society of India is organizing a National Conference on Advances in Thermophysics and Heat Transfer at Thiruvananthapuram as part of the General Body Meeting of the Society planned during 1st - 2nd June 2012. Thermophysics & Heat Transfer are core disciplines highly relevant to the field of Rocket Propulsion. Chemical rockets are perhaps the most power intensive thermodynamic devices handling Gigawatts of energy release and conversion in a confined volume of thrust chamber. The temperature extremes encountered especially in a cryogenic rocket engine poses several challenges in the design of these complex hardware. The characterization of the behavior of materials and modelling of Heat transfer mechanisms over the wide temperature range is essential for successful engineering and realization of these systems. As, LPSC is embarking on ambitious programmes of developing the 20 ton thrust Cryogenic Engine for the LVM3 project and the 200 ton thrust LOX-Kerosene Semi-Cryo engine, holding this National Conference at Thiruvananthapuram is quite timely and useful enabling many practicing engineers and professionals in the field to participate and share their knowledge and expertise. I wish the Conference all success.

One of the major prerequisite for a successful satellite mission lies in the accurate thermal modelling, analysis and prediction of the temperatures at the various critical locations on the bus systems and the payloads. The on-orbit thermal control methodology and the automated control procedures have to be well established and validated through extensive simulation and testing. The thermal management during the various phases of the mission influences the power systems design like the battery and solar panels, which in turn decides the overall size and mass of the spacecraft itself. Hence the advances in the computation methods, simulations techniques and measurement would definitely optimize the thermal control systems design, which would be cater to the ISRO’s deep space missions in a big way. On this occasion, I extend my sincere greetings and best wishes to the Aeronautical Society of India, Thiruvananthapuram chapter and wish the conference all success.

Optimization of regenerative coolant channels for liquid engines is a very involved problem Director, CABS, DRDO which requires deciding on a number of parameters such as number of cooling channels, channel Bangalore aspect ratio (AR), helical angles needed etc. Usually mass flow rate, allowable pressure drop, Amit Kumar maximum allowable temperature and manufacturability put severe constraints on the designer. In Associate Professor the present study a CFD analysis is carried out to understand how various factors such as curvature, Aerospace Engg. aspect ratio, mass flow rate and flow routing hydrodynamic and thermal behavior in Indian influences Institute ofthe Technology Madras regeneratively cooled semi-cryogenic engine. A portion of a typical semi cryogenic engine profile Chennai has been adopted for the study and numerical simulations are carried out using FLUENT 速. The secondary motions in cooling channel curvatures, reported as Dean vortices in literature, are observed. ABSTRACT Studies carried out using varying aspect ratios suggest an optimum value for the selected contour, beyond which pressure drop penalty becomes large. Influence of varying mass flow rate was studied The active antenna array unit (AAAU) is an airborne antenna array unit used for airborne to simulate the conditions of up-rating or down-rating of the engine. A case with constant heat flux early warning and control. Appropriate cooling of electronic components inside AAAU is crucial for at the bottom wall is also simulated and the effect of thermal stratification and mixing due to its effective functioning and hence the mission. This study is taken up to estimate the maximum secondary flow are visualized. Tangential velocity vectors plotted along with radial temperature surface temperatures attained by electronic components during operation of AAAU. The electronic distribution verifies the effect of the secondary flow fields on heat transfer. Even though their systems such as AAAU have massive structure for which a full simulation of conjugate heat transfer magnitude is small compared to axial velocity, their effects on the wall temperature are pronounced. (conduction + forced convection) is at present computationally prohibitive, therefore an approximate approach is adopted here. This approach involves a combination of detailed flow simulation of the full AAAU for estimating flow and pressure distribution and a parametric study of flow and temperature on individual components with detailed conjugate heat transfer simulations. The information from the former along with lumped heat transfer analysis can be used to get an estimate on the location and magnitude of hotspots that can occur within the system.

Professor Aerospace Engg. A dual ply throat insert was proposed for the engine and theoretical studies were carried out Indian Institute of Technology Madras to estimate the optimum ply angle combination for the throat insert by carrying out thermal Chennai simulation studies. The recommendations were incorporated in engine level testing and a very close match was observed between the theoretically estimated and measured thermal performance of ABSTRACT the throat insert.

ABSTRACT Aerospace Engg.

Indian Institute of Technology Madras Turbopumps are crucial components of all primary propulsion systems powered by liquid Chennai rocket engines. One of ISRO's cryogenic turbopump impellers needs to be spin tested at room temperature for qualifying it for operation at cryogenic temperature. The spin test speed of the ABSTRACT impeller is worked out considering the changes in operating conditions, stresses induced and material properties associated therewith. Based on three dimensional finite element analysis, the spin speed The active antenna array unit (AAAU) is an airborne antenna array unit used for airborne is worked out so as to get a load factor of 1.5 times of when the impeller is run at actual operating early warning and control. Appropriate cooling of electronic components inside AAAU is crucial for conditions. High performance computing studies made with two different computer systems for its effective functioning and hence the mission. This study is taken up to estimate the maximum stress analysis of the impeller is also presented and conclusions drawn. surface temperatures attained by electronic components during operation of AAAU. The electronic systems such as AAAU have massive structure for which a full simulation of conjugate heat transfer (conduction + forced convection) is at present computationally prohibitive, therefore an approximate approach is adopted here. This approach involves a combination of detailed flow simulation of the full AAAU for estimating flow and pressure distribution and a parametric study of flow and temperature on individual components with detailed conjugate heat transfer simulations. The information from the former along with lumped heat transfer analysis can be used to get an estimate on the location and magnitude of hotspots that can occur within the system.

S. Christopher ABSTRACT

Director, CABS, DRDO Aerodynamic studies for various internal andBangalore external flows rely heavily on experimental data obtained from wind tunnel tests. Most testing facilities used for high speed testing are designed Amit Kumar Associate to operate in Blow-down mode in which the desired MachProfessor number is obtained by maintaining the Aerospace Engg. a high pressure chamber in the required pressure difference across the test specimen by using Indian Institute of Technology Madras upstream and a vacuum chamber downstream of the test specimen. Furthermore, the working Chennai fluid is preheated to prevent liquefaction on expansion. In a supersonic test facility, the Diffuser Duct serves the function of recovering pressure by decelerating the working gas after exit from the test chamber. The Diffuser Duct is subjected to a near vacuum pressure on its inside and is exposed ABSTRACT to high temperature from the hot gas flow. The thermal expansion associated with elevated temperatures induces thermal stresses in the Diffuser which usually exceedarray the allowable The active antenna array unit (AAAU)Duct is an airborne antenna unit usedlimits for airborne for typical structural steels. This imposes an interesting engineering challenge and calls for a early warning and control. Appropriate cooling of electronic components inside AAAU is crucial for comprehensive procedure for design and analysis of such a complex system. This paper discusses its effective functioning and hence the mission. This study is taken up to estimate the maximum the structural of the attained diffuser by duct and thecomponents complementary analysis, surfacedesign temperatures electronic duringthermostructural operation of AAAU.

This approach involves a combination of detailed flow simulation of the full AAAU for estimating flow and pressure distribution and a parametric study of flow and temperature on individual components with detailed conjugate heat transfer simulations.

ABSTRACT Bangalore

S. Christopher

Large booster flex seal is realized through compression moulding technique, which has been Director, CABS, DRDO evolved through successful development of moulding technique for the smaller flex seals employed Bangalore in φ1m/2m solid rocket motors. Unlike the moulding process established for smaller flex seals, Amit Kumar development of process parameters for large booster flex seals posed several challenges. One of Associate Professor them is the cure cycle optimization carried out and implemented to ensure minimum temperature Aerospace Engg. gradient across the cross section of theIndian mouldInstitute and flexofseal which isMadras an essential requirement to Technology avoid over cure of seal elastomer, a natural rubber based compound. Chennai This paper details out on the generation of cure cycle for large sized flex seals. Thermal analysis is carried out for optimizing the constraint of minimal cure reversal so that there is no ABSTRACT degradation of properties of the elastomer pads occur. Trial mouldings were carried out for the validation of the cycles and realized cure cycles areairborne simulated. A good match noticed Thecure active antenna array unit (AAAU) is an antenna array unitisused for airborne betweenearly the computed and the measured temperature transients based on realized cure cycle. warning and control. Appropriate cooling of electronic components inside AAAU is crucial for its effective functioning and hence the mission. This study is taken up to estimate the maximum surface temperatures attained by electronic components during operation of AAAU. The electronic systems such as AAAU have massive structure for which a full simulation of conjugate heat transfer (conduction + forced convection) is at present computationally prohibitive, therefore an approximate approach is adopted here. This approach involves a combination of detailed flow simulation of the full AAAU for estimating flow and pressure distribution and a parametric study of flow and temperature on individual components with detailed conjugate heat transfer simulations. The information from the former along with lumped heat transfer analysis can be used to get an estimate on the location and magnitude of hotspots that can occur within the system.

S. Christopher ABSTRACT

Director, CABS, DRDO Bangalore The most critical aspect of a manned spacecraft is the presence of a reliable and efficient Environment Control and Life Support System (ECLSS) ensure comfortable environment inside AmittoKumar Associate Professor the crew cabin by effectively controlling pressure, temperature and humidity. The Thermal Control Aerospace Engg. System (TCS) is one of the major subsystems of the ECLSS and is responsible for maintaining the Indian Institute of Technology Madras temperature and humidity of the cabin within the desired limits during all phases of the mission. Chennai The system mainly consists of a closed loop coolant system wherein the heat from the cabin is taken by liquid coolant using heat exchangers and is rejected to the outer space through radiators mounted on the outer side of the service modules. The present paper presents the development of a suitable ABSTRACT numerical methodology for an system level integrated thermal analysis for a typical two fluid based TCS system. The active antenna array unit (AAAU) is an airborne antenna array unit used for airborne early warning and control. Appropriate cooling of electronic components inside AAAU is crucial for its effective functioning and hence the mission. This study is taken up to estimate the maximum surface temperatures attained by electronic components during operation of AAAU. The electronic systems such as AAAU have massive structure for which a full simulation of conjugate heat transfer (conduction + forced convection) is at present computationally prohibitive, therefore an approximate approach is adopted here. This approach involves a combination of detailed flow simulation of the full AAAU for estimating flow and pressure distribution and a parametric study of flow and temperature on individual components with detailed conjugate heat transfer simulations. The information from the former along with lumped heat transfer analysis can be used to get an estimate on the location and magnitude of hotspots that can occur within the system.

ABSTRACT Scientist, CABS, DRDO Bangalore Prediction of heat flux distribution on hypersonic air intake plays a vital role in providing S. Christopher input for selection of suitable thermal protection system. Hypersonic air intake has higher heat Director, CABS, DRDO transfer rates due to flow speed, shock-shock interactions, shock-boundary layer interaction, flow Bangalore reattachment, etc. Hence empirical methods are not amenable for prediction of wall heat transfer Amit Kumar inside the hypersonic air intake. Experimental study is carried out to predict heat flux distribution Associate Professor on a hypersonic air intake. The geometry considered for the study Aerospace Engg. consists of external compression ramps, drooped cowl, expansion rampsIndian and fuel injection struts. Experiment Institute of Technology Madras is carried out in the shock tunnel facility at Mach 6, flow enthalpy varied between 1.5 to 2.3 MJ/kg and Reynolds Chennai number is 0.2 million (based on ramp length) which indicate the flow is laminar. Heat transfer rates are obtained from temperature measurements using fast response co-axial thermocouples and are ABSTRACT measured at critical locations such as flow separation, shock impingement, shock-BL interaction, etc. High heat transfer rate of about 100W/cm2 is observed at reattachment region near expansion The active antenna array unit (AAAU) is an airborne antenna array unit used for airborne corner due to shock-boundary layer interaction. Shock-shock interaction at flow blockage region is early warning and control. Appropriate cooling of electronic components inside AAAU is crucial for also experiencing high heat flux levels of about 75 W/cm 2. Lower heat loads are observed at its effective functioning and hence the mission. This study is taken up to estimate the maximum expansion corners. surface temperatures attained by electronic components during operation of AAAU. The electronic systems such as AAAU have massive structure for which a full simulation of conjugate heat transfer (conduction + forced convection) is at present computationally prohibitive, therefore an approximate approach is adopted here. This approach involves a combination of detailed flow simulation of the full AAAU for estimating flow and pressure distribution and a parametric study of flow and temperature on individual components with detailed conjugate heat transfer simulations. The information from the former along with lumped heat transfer analysis can be used to get an estimate on the location and magnitude of hotspots that can occur within the system.

ABSTRACT Scientist, CABS, DRDO Bangalore ISRO has initiated a program for manned space missions. A very critical requirement for a S. Christopher manned space mission is a crew cabin environmental conditioning, which primarily involves ensuring Director, CABS, DRDO oxygen availability, temperature and humidity control for crew safety and comfort. The systems Bangalore must necessarily be compact and light weight. The present work highlights a prediction scheme for Amit Kumar a compact heat exchanger - an essential component of thermal control system. The heat exchanger Associate Professor is conceived for temperature control of air in the Aerospace crew cabin.Engg. The heat exchanger, a plate fin type ethylene glycol-water mixture to cool cabin air. We have with compactness of 1680 m2/m3, usesIndian Institute of Technology Madras considered the energy balance for both fluids as well as for the separating plate. The algorithm has Chennai been further extended for transient analysis of the multipass flow arrangement.

ABSTRACT The active antenna array unit (AAAU) is an airborne antenna array unit used for airborne early warning and control. Appropriate cooling of electronic components inside AAAU is crucial for its effective functioning and hence the mission. This study is taken up to estimate the maximum surface temperatures attained by electronic components during operation of AAAU. The electronic systems such as AAAU have massive structure for which a full simulation of conjugate heat transfer (conduction + forced convection) is at present computationally prohibitive, therefore an approximate approach is adopted here. This approach involves a combination of detailed flow simulation of the full AAAU for estimating flow and pressure distribution and a parametric study of flow and temperature on individual components with detailed conjugate heat transfer simulations. The information from the former along with lumped heat transfer analysis can be used to get an estimate on the location and magnitude of hotspots that can occur within the system.
