DESCRIPTION

This RFP seeks vendors capable of providing a comprehensive computational fluid dynamics (CFD) tool modernization solution. The development of these systems requires robust and accurate CFD models to guide design decisions and understand combustion dynamics and performance observed during testing or operation.

Key requirements include model development in areas such as subcritical liquid injection and break-up, interface tracking, phase change, and multiphase combustion kinetics mechanisms. The ultimate goal is the development of predictive analytical tools to support the design of advanced chemical propulsion systems.

Vendors should demonstrate expertise in modeling complex fluid dynamics phenomena and the implementation of advanced analytical tools for propulsion system design.
