Monopropellant thrusters are one of the most common types of propulsion systems that are used extensively in space applications. Especially thrusters with a capacity of less than 50N, they are used on space satellites and are developing rapidly. Problems such as contamination, toxicity of the propellant, difficulty in storing and custody, as well as price, led to the removal of the hydrazine from the focus of attention and focus on green propulsion. One of these, is the green propellant of hydrogen peroxide, which is decomposed in the proper catalytic vicinity, and the only chemical decomposition products are oxygen and water vapour. The present study aims to design and construct mono... 

Presently, a wide range of devices operate at supercritical condition. In fact, supercritical condition refers to a condition in which both temperature and pressure of injected fluid exceed the critical point. In the case of modern internal combustion engine, the temperature and pressure of combustion chamber is high enough that can be considered as supercritical condition, whilst the fuel injected may be subcritical or transcritical.It has been widely accepted that in supercritical state, vaporization enthalpy is vanished and there is no distinction between gas and liquid. Hence, only a single state will remain which is neither liquid nor gas and referred to as fluid. Moreover, many...
