Questions for the written part of the exam of the Computational Techniques for Thermochemical Propulsion class. Call of January 17, 2025 1. Describe the projection method for the set of governing equations and the segregated iteration technique used to ensure the pressure-velocity coupling (p-v coupling). 2. Explain residuals in assessing convergence in the pressure-velocity coupling algorithm. How can plots be used to diagnose convergence? Guide the adjustment of solver settings. 3. How can LPT sprays be integrated into combustion? How are the coupling terms between LPT and Eulerian approaches handled? 4. Basics of face advection. 5. Formulate energy conservation (heat) as it is found in the Finite Volume (FV) solver. After deriving the transport equation for chemical species, explain how it is linked to the energy equation in a single flow simulation. 6. Explain the Rhie-Chow interpolation method and focus in characteristics when applied to the SIMPLE algoritm
