Within the HOPE project, this study focuses on the multi-fuel concept for aircraft propulsion. Considering a laboratory-scale combustor hosted at TU Delft and originally fueled with pure hydrogen, reactive CFD simulations are used to explore different spray injection configurations and assess the impact of kerosene on the overall performance of the rig.
