Altitude-compensating axisymmetric supersonic nozzle design and flow analysis [PDF]
Altitude-adapted nozzles are designed to facilitate flow adaptation during rocket ascent in the atmosphere, without requiring mechanical activation. As a consequence, the performance of the nozzle is significantly improved.

Aerodynamic Design of a Laval Nozzle for Real Gas Using Hodograph Method
We propose an approach for the design of the subsonic part of plane and axisymmetric Laval nozzles for real gases. The proposed approach is based on the hodograph method and allows one to solve the inverse design problem directly.

Nozzle contours for minimum particle-lag loss [PDF]
The flow of a gas-particle mixture through a rocket nozzle is analyzed under the approximation that the particle slip velocity is small compared with the average mixture velocity, using one-dimensional gasdynamics, the Stokes drag law, and corresponding ...
