title = "Numerical modeling of priming event peak pressures in liquid propulsion systems",
abstract = "A numerical study was performed to determine the pressure transient levels in unrestricted liquid monopropellant propulsion system configurations and propellant manifolds generated from surge events during system priming. This was accomplished through the use of a commercial multi-physics system-level simulation software called GT-SUITE, which predicted the maximum peak priming event pressures in various liquid system configurations. Experimental data from multiple literature research efforts involving priming after the opening of a latch valve were evaluated using the numerical model to determine the accuracy of the results among various internal diameters, line lengths, manifold layouts, and flow control valves at different pre-test pressure levels in the system. Based upon the results, it was determined that the numerical model was a promising tool to predict liquid system pressure transient levels.",
