Offer Description The activity involves supporting the development of models addressing several topics in rocket propulsion. These include two-phase flows and internal ballistics in solid rocket motors, film cooling systems in liquid rocket engines, retro-propulsion, flows in converging-diverging nozzles, and combustion instabilities in rocket engines. The research requires knowledge of programming methods using both traditional and modern techniques
