Orifice Flow Dynamics in a Rocket Injector as an Excitation Source of Injector-Driven Combustion Instabilities

To investigate a hypothesis of the orifice flow-induced instability in rocket engine thrust chambers, a single liquid oxygen (LOX) injector with an optically accessible orifice module was used for experiments, with water as a simulant for LOX. The unsteady pressure downstream of the orifice was meas...
