A Note on Liquid Velocities Arising during Decompression Degassing in Hypergravity

Liquid degassing takes place in several space processes (cooling and lubrication of hardware, combustion of liquid propellants etc.) during launching and re-orbiting of rockets and workstations. The present work studies the effect of hypergravity acceleration on the two phase flow that is developed during the degassing of a liquid jet. Liquid is initially saturated with dissolved gas at 200 kPa and 400 kPa and is then injected at the bottom of a...
