Study on the thermodynamics of nozzles for the combustion of propane
This collection of Jupyter notebooks is intended to help in the analysis and design of propane burners for forges. It utilizes iPython widgets, so these need to be run somewhere other than github.
This notebook looks at one-dimensional, Mach 1 flow through a metering orifice, and is a basis for understanding fuel injection.
This notebook explores the design of a subsonic cone nozzle.
This notebook is to be an exploration of bell nozzles contoured by the method of characteristics. It is far from complete.
This notebook explores the chemistry of combustion and methods for combustion chamber (combustor) sizing.
This notebook will be for combining the understanding from all of the other notebooks into a cohesive system: fuel injectors, combustor, and outlet nozzle.
