Research Focus

Prof. Haidn’s research focuses on rocket

propulsion with the main emphasis

on technologies for liquid propellant

rocket engines: propellant injection,

ignition technologies, combustion

stability, heat transfer, cooling and life

cycle analysis, nozzle flow phenomena,

turbopump seals, bearings and lifing and

environmentally benign propellants and

in particular on dynamic processes. The

group aims to establish a strong modeling

and simulation group parallel to its

experimental activities.

Competence

The publications of the Space Propulsion

group clearly demonstrate the compe­

tence of the group in the field of rocket

engine technology.
