Contoured Rocket Nozzles

1959
A method of designing rocket nozzle wall contours to yield optimum thrust is presented. The rocket exhaust gases are treated under the assumption of isentropic, adiabatic and frictionless flow. Nozzle length and ambient pressure appear as governing restrictions under which the thrust is maximized.

Investigation of the infrared characteristics of the rocket nozzle

IEEE Aerospace and Electronic Systems Magazine, 2009
Investigation of the infrared characteristics of a rocket nozzle is very important for the study of infrared initiating technology. The Narrow-Band Zone model is developed for that purpose. The spectral transmission and absorption factors are introduced, and the equations between radiative heat flux and the temperature of waill surfaces and gas are ...

Chemical Kinetics and Rocket Nozzle Design

Journal of the American Rocket Society, 1951
Abstract : The effect of chemical kinetics on rocket nozzle design was investigated for the particular case of hydrogen gas flowing adiabatically through a typical rocket nozzle having a chamber-to-throat-area ratio of 2 to 1. For comparative purposes the following types of flow were considered: (a) constant composition (frozen equilibrium), (b ...

High-Performance Rocket Nozzle Concept

Journal of Propulsion and Power, 2010
An innovative technical solution that overcomes the limitation induced by flow separation phenomena and allows increasing the vacuum-specific impulse of a main stage rocket engine is presented. After reviewing the open technical literature on flow separation and advance nozzles design, the newly proposed concept is extensively presented.

Recent Developments in Rocket Nozzle Configurations

ARS Journal, 1961
T THRUST of a rocket engine is primarily dependent upon the momentum imparted to the products of combustion by discharging them through an exhaust nozzle. During their passage through the nozzle, the exhaust gases are continuously accelerated from low subsonic velocities to high supersonic velocities at the nozzle exit. For the purpose of understanding

Flow separation and side-loads in rocket nozzles

35th Joint Propulsion Conference and Exhibit, 1999
Flow separation in nozzles of rocket engines is undesired because it can lead to dangerous lateral forces, which might damage the nozzle. The origin of side-loads is not fully clear, although different possible origins were identified in the past. Meanwhile, it seems to be clear that in thrust-optimized or parabolic nozzles, a major side-load is due to

Reacting Flow Simulation of Rocket Nozzles

2016
Reacting flow simulation of high area ratio rocket nozzles is done using an indigenously developed Point Implicit Unstructured Finite Volume Solver. A numerical solution procedure to solve turbulent-reacting nozzle flow field is developed, which is based on the implicit treatment of chemical source terms by preconditioning and then explicitly solved ...
