Aims & Scope

Propulsion and Power Research covers the fields of aerospace component and system design, rotating detonation engines, film cooling of liquid rocket engines, cooling technologies for high temperature rotating components in gas turbine, and combined effects of Joule heating and non-uniform heat source/sink on unsteady MHD mixed convective flow over a vertical stretching surface embedded in a Darcy-Forchheimer porous medium, impact of different nano additives on performance, combustion, emissions and exergetic analysis of a diesel engine using waste cooking oil biodiesel.
