Abstract

The following problems is investigated by statement of direct numerical experiment in offered paper. 1) The real oscillatory process is reproduced. 2) The mechanism of occurrence and refill of low-frequency acoustic instability in the combustion chamber of the solid propellant rocket.. The direct numerical modeling of low-frequency acoustic instability will be carried out by a Davydov’s method. This powerful numerical method was discovered by Yuri M. Davydov 40 years ago as the method of large particles The further modern complex improvement of this numerical technique was titled Davydov’s method. It is good itself recommending at the decision of many tasks of the mechanics of continuous media. The description of physical and mathematical model of flow in the rocket engine combustion chamber is given. The results of numerical modeling are resulted. The hydrodynamical deeply nonlinear nature of low-frequency fluctuations connected to structure and character of current in the combustion chamber of the solid propellant rocket engine proves to be true
