The main objective of the project is development of regeneratively cooled combustion chambers technology for use in bipropellant rocket engines. High efficiency, flexibility and reusability offered by regenerative cooling makes it a key technology, mastering which will allow for further maturation of Polish rocket engine solutions – increasing their competitiveness on the European market and filling a critical global technology gap. Studying high concentration hydrogen peroxide behavior under forced convection conditions (such as those found in the cooling channel of a combustion chamber) is necessary to increase the technology readiness level of both Polish and European green propulsion solutions, as it will provide its range of applicability as a coolant and facilitate creation of mathematical models and engineering tools streamlining the design process.
