A systematic review on computational modelling and reacting flow simulations of a hybrid rocket engine

This project gives a step‑by‑step method for checking computational models and reacting‑flow simulations in hybrid rocket engines. Simulating reacting flow is hard because fast fluid motion is tightly linked to complex chemical reactions. The work reviews the turbulence models, chemical mechanisms, and dimensional analyses that are currently used, and points out which parameters most affect the accuracy of hybrid rocket combustion models. It also looks at the limits of today’s numerical tools and shows where they fall short in modeling full hybrid rocket engine setups. The project advises how to pick the right turbulence model—RANS, DES, or LES—and the appropriate chemical reaction mechanism to keep numerical instabilities and errors low.

It also sets up an assessment of existing and upcoming space missions that use hybrid propulsion, giving a clear picture of the market and operational environment. The final framework provides aerospace engineering students with a clear research path, practical documentation, and tips to improve CFD workflows, cut convergence problems, and boost the predictive quality of hybrid rocket propulsion simulations.
