| Summary: | The present work focuses on the development of new mathematical and numerical tools to deal with wave propagation problems in a realistic liquid rocket chamber environment. A simplified real fluid equation of state is here derived, starting from the literature. An approximate Riemann solver is then specifically derived for the selected conservation laws and primitive variables. Both the new equation of state and the new Riemann solver are embedded into an in-house one-dimensional CFD solver. The verification and validation of the new code against wave propagation problems are then performed, showing good behavior. Although such problems might be of interest for different applications, the present study is specifically oriented to the low order modeling of high-frequency combustion instability in liquid-propellant rocket engines.
