Digital Twin of a High-Energy System Using Aluminum Hydride as a Fuel

  • Published:
Journal of Engineering Physics and Thermophysics Aims and scope

Numerical modeling of the flow of combustion products of the propellant containing an aluminum hydride admixture in the nozzle of a solid-propellant rocket engine has been carried out. The advantage of aluminum hydride over aluminum when used in composite solid propellants has been shown.
