In the last decade the triennial reports from Commission 49 have covered various topics like (nonlinear) plasma processes, magnetohydrodynamic phenomena and flows in the heliosphere, solar wind composition, transient events in, and latitudinal dependencies of, the heliosphere, interstellar gas flow through the interface region, kinetic versus magnetohydrodynamic theory in heliospheric plasmas and charged dust in space plasmas. Continuing the tradition of summarizing specific aspects to give astronomers outside our own specialty a flavour of our field, we now address recent advances in understanding coronal mass ejections in interplanetary space and the inner heliospheric solar wind under quiet and perturbed conditions. We owe a great debt of gratitude to the eminent contributors for their valiant efforts in writing these succinct but clear reports and guiding us through the recent literature.

The accurate prediction of liquid leak rates in packing seals is an important step in the design of stuffing boxes, in order to comply with environmental protection laws and health and safety regulations regarding the release of toxic substances or fugitive emissions, such as those implemented by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Technische Anleitung zur Reinhaltung der Luft (TA Luft). Most recent studies conducted on seals have concentrated on the prediction of gas flow, with little to no effort put toward predicting liquid flow. As a result, there is a need to simulate liquid flow through sealing materials in order to predict leakage into the outer boundary. Modelling of liquid flow through porous packing materials was addressed in this work. Characterization of their porous structure was determined to be a key parameter in the prediction of liquid flow through packing materials; the relationship between gland stress and leak rate was also acknowledged. The proposed methodology started by conducting experimental leak measurements with helium gas to characterize the number and size of capillaries. Liquid leak tests with water and kerosene were then conducted in order to validate the predictions. This study showed that liquid leak rates in packed stuffing boxes could be predicted with reasonable accuracy for low gland stresses. It was found that internal pressure and compression stress had an effect on leakage, as did the thickness change and the type of fluid. The measured leak rates were in the range of 0.062 to 5.7 mg/s for gases and 0.0013 and 5.5 mg/s for liquids.

To acquire better understanding of the early ignition phenomena in 100mm ignition simulator loaded with packed propellant bed, a theoretical model of ignition gas flow through rigid porous media is developed. Three pressure gauges are installed in the lateral side of ignition simulator for chamber pressure measurements after ignition. The pseupropellant loaded in the chamber is similar to the standard 13/19 single-base cylindrical propellant in size. It is composed of rigid ceramic composite with low thermo conductivity. It is assumed that the pseupropellant bed is rigid in contrast to the previous elastic porous media assumption. The calculated pressure values can be verified by the experimental data well at the low loading density of pseupropellant bed of 0.18 g/cm3. However, there is still error between the experimental and calculated results in the early pressure peak position close to the ignition primer when the loading density of pseupropellant bed increases to 0.73 and 1.06g/cm3, due to the change of local permeability of pseupropellant bed at high loading density, which is assumed a constant in the model for the modeling easily. The calculations can enable better understanding of physical processes of ignition gas flow in the ignition simulator loaded with the pseupropellant bed.
