The main problem for fluid mechanics analysis in the rocket engine is that of predicting the contained fuel mass for various propellant-to-fuel flow ratios. Tha analysis described here predicts a dimensionless measure of fuel mass called the fuel volume fraction. This analysis uses a coaxial free-jet computer code, and eddy viscosity equations developed for this code.
