Nitrous oxide cooling in hybrid rocket nozzles
The Department of Mechanical Engineering at the California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo, has developed an innovative program of experimental research and development on hybrid rocket motors (where the fuel and the oxidizer are in different phases prior to combustion). One project currently underway involves the development of aerospike nozzles for such motors. These nozzles, ho...
متن کاملUnsteady Phenomena in Supersonic Nozzle Flow Separation
This work considers the instability of the jet plume from an overexpanded, shockcontaining convergent-divergent nozzle and attempts to correlate this instability to internal shock-induced separation phenomena. Time resolved wall pressure measurements and Pitot measurements are used as primary diagnostics. For the conditions of this study flow separation is asymmetric resulting in a large separa...
متن کاملNumerical Investigation of Supersonic Nozzle Flow Separation
S EPARATION of supersonic flow in a convergent–divergent nozzle is a fundamental fluid phenomenon that affects a large variety of applications, from fuel systems to aircraft engine nozzles. When a supersonic nozzle is operated at pressure ratioswell below its design point, a shock forms inside the nozzle andflowdownstreamof the shock separates from the nozzle walls. Even though flow separation ...
متن کاملFlow Analysis and Optimization of Supersonic Rocket Engine Nozzle at Various Divergent Angle using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)
CFD is a branch of Fluid Mechanics which rely on numerical methods and algorithms to solve and analyze problem that involves fluid flow. CFD analysis has been conducted to analyze flow pattern of supersonic rocket nozzle at various degree of divergent angle by using two dimensional axis-symmetric model, which solves governing equation by a control volume method. Variation in parameters like vel...
متن کاملShock Motion and Flow Instabilities in Supersonic Nozzle Flow Separation
This study evaluates the role of shock wave motion on the instability of the plume exiting an over-expanded, convergent-divergent nozzle. An array of wall pressure transducers was used to track the position of the shock in time, and a Pitot probe was used to obtain simultaneous measurement of the total pressure fluctuations at various points in the jet that emerges from the separation shock. An...
