הפקולטה להנדסת אווירונוטיקה וחלל בטכניון ע"ש סטיבן ב. קליין היא מרכז אקדמי ברמה עולמית לאוירונוטיקה ואסטרונאוטיקה, המוקדש ליצירה, הרחבה והפצה של רעיונות וידע במדעי התעופה והחלל.
Shavit Attar | This study demonstrates closed-loop control of the shock train leading-edge location in a dual-mode scramjet combustor using fuel-injection distribution as the control input. Experiments were performed in a direct-connect, cavity-stabilized combustor with distributed ethylene injection.
Saar Levi | Hypergolic propellants are defined by their ability to ignite immediately upon contact, resulting in rapid exothermic reactions occurring without the need for an external ignition source. In hybrid rocket engines, this spontaneous reaction simplifies thruster management, reduces system mass, and enables engine re-ignition.
An emerging goal within the aviation industry is to replace conventional jet fuel with alternative fuel sources. However, the combustion properties of these potential fuels must be thoroughly characterized before...
Belief space planning (BSP) is a fundamental problem in robotics and artificial intelligence, with applications including autonomous driving, sensor deployment and active SLAM. The goal is to autonomously determine best...
The futuristic concept of civil autonomous aerial refueling using the Boom-Receptacle system, demands new operational paradigms. Requirements, such as passenger comfort, demand that the Tanker aircraft will approach the Receiver...
Flow control has emerged as an enabling technology to improve vehicles’ performance. It involves passive and active devices to affect a beneficial change in wall-bounded or free-shear flows. The presentation...
The use of advanced composite structures is continuously increasing in the modern aerospace industry. Military aircraft were the first to take advantage of the weight saving potential of composites. The...
The ease of use of sophisticated advanced technologies, methods and equipment often affects the in-depth understanding of causes, rules and principles which underlie the analysed processes and phenomena; e.g., for...
The phenomenon of explosion (or self-ignition, not to be confused with detonation) of fuel mixtures is well known, both as a desired phenomenon, such as the ignition of the fuel...
