N2 - IllinoisRocstar LLC is enhancing and commercializing the computational capabilities of a comprehensive, integrated, massively parallel software suite for performing complex three-dimensional multiphysics simulations. Referred to as the Rocstar Simulation Suite (RSS), its original target application was advanced solid rocket motor (SRM) modeling, analyzing internal multiphase flow ballistics, coupled combustion and internal grain deformation. The core fluid dynamics, solid mechanics, combustion, and thermal analysis component codes are based on research and development in LES turbulence modeling, multiphase flow, constitutive modeling, combustion chemistry, computational mechanics, thermal heat transfer, multicomponent coupling methodologies, uncertainty quantification, and multiscale modeling techniques. This paper will discuss the evolving architecture, why a multiphysics, multiscale modeling capability is important to the design and analysis of advanced solid propellant rockets, and presents a number of simulations that have recently been completed with Rocstar to illustrate the importance of these capabilities.
