The Navier-Stokes equations have been used for numerical modeling of chemically reacting gas flow in the propulsion chamber. The chamber represents an axially symmetrical plane disk. Fuel and oxidant were fed into the chamber separately at some angle to the inflow surface and not parallel one to another to ensure better mixing of species. The model is based on conservation laws of mass, momentum, and energy for nonsteady two-dimensional compressible gas flow in the case of axial symmetry. The processes of viscosity, thermal conductivity, turbulence, and diffusion of species have been taken into account. The possibility of detonation mode of combustion of the mixture in the chamber was numerically demonstrated. The detonation triggering depends on the values of angles between fuel and oxidizer jets. This type of the propulsion chamber is effective because of the absence of stagnation zones and good mixing of species before burning.

The present study compares the temperature distribution within cylindrical samples heated in microwave furnace with those achieved in radiatively-heated (conventional) furnace. Using a two-dimensional finite difference approach the thermal profiles were simulated for cylinders of varying radii (0.65, 6.5, and 65 cm) and physical properties. The influence of susceptor-assisted microwave heating was also modeled for the same. The simulation results reveal differences in the heating behavior of samples in microwaves. The efficacy of microwave heating depends on the sample size and its thermal conductivity.

There are many commercial software to perform numerical modeling based on finite element (FEM) and finite difference (FDM) methods. It is often a requirement to the designer, that the values of the individual nodes in the numerical model are known. Usually, these softwares provide two methods to achieve this; firstly, by clicking directly onto the nodes of interest and secondly, by saving or exporting the whole nodal values to an external file. The former way is appropriate for models with small number of nodes, but as the number of nodes increases, it is no longer an efficient or effective way. Through the latter method, all nodal values are obtained, however the values are one-dimensional, and in some cases, only certain nodal values are required for presentation. In this paper, an algorithm for automatic composition of nodal values obtained from the second method mentioned above. The composed nodal values will be in two-dimensional form as this is the format used for uniform shaped model (square or rectangular). Since numerical softwares usually have facilities to save the data in a spreadsheet format, the proposed algorithm is implemented in this environment by using spreadsheet script programming.
