Stagnation and static property correlations for equilibrium flows

Abstract

This paper presents an algorithm to determine the relationship between stagnation and static property for equilibrium flows. Results are presented for the combustion equilibrium of two different oxidizer–fuel combinations, namely, LOX/LH2 and MMH/N2O4. It is found that the ratio of stagnation to static properties depends on Mach number as well as initial mixture ratio and chamber pressure (stagnation pressure) of the reactants.
