A study of forced flow separation in rocket nozzle

Abstract

The characteristics of flow profile in a rocket nozzle during the start transient were investigated as well as possibilities of reducing the side-load thrust by sticking trip wires in the nozzle. To simplify the geometry of flow configuration around the trip wire, it was assumed that the flow is passing through square steps instead of round wires. Since a purely analytic solution is not available, a series of semiempirical solutions was proposed.
