session 2

Title: Liquid Propulsion (2)
type: oral
Description: The session Liquid Propulsion (2) is dedicated to Liquid Rocket Engines (mono-propellant or bi-propellant), with particular emphasis on sub-systems and specific components (including propellants). The session welcomes manuscripts on all research and development areas, with a significant technical content: design, testing (including diagnostics and test facilities), analysis and calculations, modelling, applications, science and fundamentals.
