flame trench
Usage examples
  • During ignition of the rocket propulsion system, transient pressure waves are initiated by the interaction of the exhaust plume with the flame trench. These ignition over-pressure waves are generated during the initial buildup of thrust, in which mass is suddenly injected into the confined volume of the flame trench under the launch platform.
