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.
Ignition is a challenge for gas turbines, ramjets and scramjets where flow velocities in the combustor are high, resulting in short flow residence times. The success of ignition depends on...
Destructive vibrations caused by stochastic external disturbances such as earthquakes, explosions, and fluid-structure interactions pose an insidious threat to various critical infrastructure and mechanical components. Among the most vulnerable and...
The supersonic combustion ramjet, or scramjet, is an air-breathing engine designed for cruise at Mach number of 5 and above. The high-speed flow within the combustor poses a major issue...
Investigation of the performance of experimental combustion devices relies heavily on proper diagnostics for characterization of operating regimes and validation of numerical modelling predictions. The primary goal of this work...
A crucial part of the development of a complex system is its testing and validation. To support the design and validation process of a low-cost research missile, a hardware-in-the-loop testbed...
A major current threat on Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) and Air-to-Surface Missiles (ASM) is being intercepted by Surface-to-Air Missiles (SAMs) with maneuvering capabilities. There are many methods to increase the...
