During the lifetime of the Satellite Propulsion System, there are two cases in which water hammer effect occurs in the system: the first one is through the priming phase of the propulsion system, i.e. the opening of the isolation valve; the second one is through the operation of the thrusters, i.e. the sudden closure of the thruster valve following the continuous flow of propellant through valve. Due to the water hammer phenomenon, high pressure surges may be experienced. In order to avoid propellant decomposition in the propellant lines and for the reliability of the system, the aforementioned fluid transient effects should be investigated in detail. From this point of view, a test setup representing a simplified monopropellant propulsion system has been constructed and tests have been performed by utilizing water as the fluid media in ROKETSAN Missile Industries premises.

Numerical and experimental investigation of direct connected ramjet test facility
Esirgen, Başar; Aksel, Mehmet Haluk; Ak, Mehmet Ali; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2014)
The main objective of this study is to make a numerical model of direct connected ramjet test facility which is used for ground tests of supersonic air breathing propulsion systems. Conceptual design of a direct connected ramjet test facility is performed. 1 dimensional transient numerical model is made according to this conceptual design. Numerical model is made by using 1 dimensional computational fluid dynamic code FLOWNEX. Validation of the numerical model is performed by comparison of test data. After ...
EXPERIMENTAL ANALYSIS AND TRANSIENT SIMULATION OF HEAT TRANSFER INSIDE THE FINNED TUBE ADSORBENT BED OF A THERMAL WAVE CYCLE
ÇAĞLAR, AHMET; Yamali, Cemil (Begell House, 2019-01-01)
Heat transfer enhancement inside the adsorbent bed of a thermal wave adsorption cooling cycle is investigated both experimentally and theoretically. Various adsorbent materials are tested using a finned tube adsorbent bed for the thermal wave cycle. The mathematical model is well defined, including a 2-D coupled heat and mass transfer analysis. This study presents the effects of heat transfer fluid velocity, regeneration temperature, condenser pressure, and particle diameter on the heat transfer enhancement...
Pulse phase resolved x-ray spectroscopy of four accretion powered millisecond pulsars
Çolak, Sıdıka Merve; Baykal, Altan; Department of Physics (2014)
In this thesis, pulse phase resolved X-ray spectroscopy of four accretion powered millisecond pulsars which are IGR J00291+5934 , IGR J17498-2921 , XTE J0929-314 and XTE J1807-294 will be presented. Phase dependent changes during their outbursts will be checked for possible correlations of spectral parameters such as photon index and blackbody temperature with rotation phase using archive of Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) observations. In the analysis of IGR J17498-2921 in 2011 outburst , positive corre...
Investigation of water hammer problems and potential solutions in pump discharge lines
Erdem, Recep Çağrı; Bozkuş, Zafer; Department of Civil Engineering (2019)
Disturbance in boundary conditions of a hydraulic system could cause rapid change in flow velocity in confined pipe systems. Pressure wave leading to an event called water hammer may occur as a consequence of that disturbance. Water hammer could lead to catastrophic failures on the hydraulic systems. Thus, proper protection measures should be defined and installed in the system before it is put into operation. The aim of this study is to analyze a pumped discharge line and ensure its safe operation against ...
Numerical investigation of protection measures against water hammer in the Yeşilvadi hydropower plant
Dursun, Samet; Bozkuş, Zafer (null; 2014-10-25)
Pressurized hydraulic systems are vulnerable to water hammer, which is an unsteady hydraulic problem. Changes of direction or velocity of the water in the system cause sudden increase in pressure and pipeline may collapse or burst. The purpose of this paper is to analyze pressure relief valves (PRV), which are used as protection measures against water hammer, numerically and compare the results with measured field data of a run-of-river hydropower plant project. The hydropower system is investigated numeric...
