Analysis of Thrust Vectoring Nozzle with a Secondary Shock Wave Channel

Abstract

Abstract A two-dimensional fluidic thrust vectoring nozzle with a secondary shock wave channel is designed in this paper. The direct secondary shock wave channel is composed of a front vacuum chamber, a secondary flow chamber, and a rear vacuum chamber. Based on the numerical simulations using a Navier-stokes solver, the structural parameters of the secondary shock wave channel on the nozzle performance are studied.
