In aircraft design, the Velocity of Wet Combustion refers to the speed at which the combustion process occurs in the presence of moisture or water injection into the combustion chamber. This parameter can be important for certain engine configurations, particularly in cases where the injection of water is used for cooling or enhancing engine performance.
- V is the velocity of the air entering the engine (in meters per second, m/s).
- ṁ is the mass flow rate in kilograms per second (kg/s).
- ρ is the air density in kilograms per cubic meter (kg/m³).
- A is the cross-sectional area through which air enters (in square meters, m²).
