An experimental method is proposed for estimating the damping decrements of pressure fluctuations in the combustion chambers of forced rocket engines. The method is based on the statistical processing of noise pressure pulsations in the vicinity of natural resonance frequencies for normal modes of acoustic vibrations of the reaction volume and the subsequent prediction of the instability of the combustion process relative to acoustic vibrations. Based on the theory of statistical regression for multidimensional experimental data, the problem of predicting unknown parameters of sample distributions is solved by asymptotic determination of the correlation coefficient of the damping decrement of pressure vibrations through optimal linear predictors and the Kolmogorov distribution. Keywords rocket engine, combustion chamber, acoustic vibrations, combustion noise, spectral characteristics, Kolmogorov criterion, damping decrement. [email protected]

Advance of an electronic technology has caused the increase of heat generation density for semiconductors densely integrated. Thermal management becomes more important, and a cooling system for high heat flux is required. It is extremely effective to such a demand using flow boiling heat transfer because of its high heat removal ability. To develop the cooling system for a large area at high heat flux, the cold plate structure of narrow channels with auxiliary unheated channel for additional liquid supply was devised and confirmed its validity by experiments. A large surface of 150mm in heated length and 30mm in width with grooves of an apex angle of 90 deg, 0.5mm depth and 1mm in pitch was employed. A structure of narrow rectangular heated channel between parallel plates with an unheated auxiliary channel was employed and the heat transfer characteristics were examined by using water for different combinations of gap sizes and volumetric flow rates. Five different liquid distribution modes were tested and their data were compared. The values of CHF larger than 1.9×106W/m2 for gap size of 2mm under mass velocity based on total volumetric flow rate and on the cross section area of main heated channel 720kg/m2s or 1.7×106W/m2 for gap size of 5mm under 290kg/m2s were obtained under total volumetric flow rate 4.5×10−5m3/s regardless of the liquid distribution modes. Under several conditions, the extensions of dry-patches were observed at the upstream location of the main heated channel resulting burnout not at the downstream but at the upstream. High values of CHF larger than 2×106W/m2 were obtained only for gap size of 2mm. The result indicates that higher mass velocity in the main heated channel is more effective for the increase in CHF. It was clarified that there is optimum flow rate distribution to obtain the highest values of CHF. For gap size of 2mm, high heat transfer coefficient as much as 7.4×104W/m2K were obtained at heat flux 1.5×106W/m2 under mass velocity 720kg/m2s based on total volumetric flow rate and on the cross section area of main heated channel. Also to obtain high heat transfer coefficient, it is more useful to supply the cooling liquid from the auxiliary unheated channel for additional liquid supply in the transverse direction perpendicular to the flow in the main heated channel.

The ultrafast dynamic reflectivity of vanadium pentoxide is measured using 40 fs pulses from a self-mode-locked Ti:sapphire laser. The laser pulses excite acoustic vibrations at wave numbers of 145 and 103 cm−1. The amplitudes of the induced oscillations depend strongly on the orientation between the linear polarization of the laser pulses and the crystal axes, with the largest oscillations observed for an orientation of 45°. The higher-frequency oscillation is induced immediately upon arrival of the laser pulse, while the lower-frequency oscillation appears a few picoseconds later. The oscillations persist for approximately 10 ps after the arrival of the pulse. The oscillations are attributed to transverse acoustic modes propagating along the a-axis of the crystal.
