Numerical Analysis of Nozzle Material Thermochemical Erosion in Hybrid Rocket Engines [PDF]
Ablative materials are commonly used to protect the nozzle metallic housing and to provide the internal contour to expand the exhaust gases in both solid and hybrid rockets. Because of interaction with hot gas, these materials are chemically eroded during rocket firing, with a resulting nominal performance reduction.

Numerical Determination of Nozzle Admittances in Rocket Engines
2010A numericalmethod in the time domain is introduced to assess the stability with respect to the nozzle’s geometry in liquid rocket engines. A boundary condition for the injector plane in a combustion chamber is presented, where the mass flow fluctuations are set to zero. Thus the acoustic flux over the injector plane is zero even when there is mean flow

Thrust augmentation nozzle (TAN) concept for rocket engine booster applications
Acta Astronautica, 2006Abstract Aerojet used the patented thrust augmented nozzle (TAN) concept to validate a unique means of increasing sea-level thrust in a liquid rocket booster engine. We have used knowledge gained from hypersonic Scramjet research to inject propellants into the supersonic region of the rocket engine nozzle to significantly increase sea-level thrust ...
