  1. 1. Supersonic flow separation with application to rocket engine nozzles

    Author : Jan Östlund; KTH; []
    Keywords : turbulent; boundary layer; shock wave; interaction; overexpanded; rocket nozzle; flow separation; control; side-load; experiments; models; review;

    Abstract : The increasing demand for higher performance in rocketlaunchers promotes the development of nozzles with higherperformance, which basically is achieved by increasing theexpansion ratio. However, this may lead to flow separation andensuing instationary, asymmetric forces, so-called side-loads,which may present life-limiting constraints on both the nozzleitself and other engine components.
