A solid rocket motor has quite complex physical condition such exothermal chemical reaction in subsonic area and supersonic ex pansion in a converging-diverging nozzle. To introduce a simulation tool for compressible flow in supersonic range as well as incompressible chemical reaction zone in a whole rocket nozzle is a essential demand. Since the flow vary subsonic to super sonic, the convergence in computation becomes very low and unstable in a whole domain of rocket motor. This paper reports the 2-D Axisymmetric and simple 3-D solid propellant combustion and flow of gases in rocket motor by using a precondi tioning, shear stress turbulence modeling, AUSM(p). To simulate the simplified combustion process, Double base solid propellant is used to calculate reaction of solid propellant.

Axisymmetric separated flows in a converging-diverging conical nozzle are investigated through numerical simulations for various pressure ratios. We employ AUSM scheme for spatial derivatives and Pulliam's 2nd order subiteration time stepping scheme for implicit time integration. Numerical results indicate that the separated flow structures are very complex when compared to the simple quasi-one dimensional flow. Depending on the pressure ratio, the flow within the nozzle is either separated or non-separated. Various separated flow patterns with distinctive features are illustrated and discussed in detail.

CFD simulation has been conducted on a small scaled 4 nozzle clustered engine operating with air. In the present paper, the effects of grid size, turbulence models, flux difference methods have been compared. The results show that the base flows are somewhat different as the turbulence models, while Roe and AUSM flux differences produced almost the same results. Spalart-Allmaras turbulence model produces more accurate results rather than famous SST k-w model. The calculated Mach number and pressure profile in the engine base reveal the complex base flow structure, which is somewhat different from the generally estimated flow fields.

Performance of Secondary Injection Thrust Vector Control system is investigated under various secondary injection operating conditions. 3-dimensional converging-diverging nozzle having 8 secondary injection nozzles is used in this numerical study. Total pressure of flow inside the nozzle is about 70bars, and total temperature set to 300K for cold flow simulation. Effect of secondary injection flow rate and injection nozzle configuration is considered in this research. Simulation is conducted with commercial CFD code Ansys Fluent v13. Spalart-Allmaras(1-equation)model is used for turbulence modeling with AUSM+ scheme. Various performance factors as Axial thrust, side force, system specific impulse ratio are considered and explained for system performance evaluation.

In recent years, scientific community has found renewed interest in hypersonic flight research. These hypersonic vehicles undergo severe aero-thermal environment during their flight regimes. During reentry and hypersonic flight of these vehicles through atmosphere real gas effects come into play. The analysis of such hypersonic flows is critical for proper aero-thermal design of these vehicles. The numerical simulation of hypersonic real gas flows is a very challenging task. The present work emphasizes numerical simulation of hypersonic flows with thermal non-equilibrium. Hyperbolic system of equations with stiff relaxation method are identified in recent literature as a novel method of predicting long time behaviour of systems such as gas at high temperature. In present work, Energy Relaxation Method (ERM) has been considered to simulate the real gas flows. Navier-Stokes equations A numerical scheme Advection Upstream Splitting Method (AUSM) has been selected. Navier-Stokes solver along with relaxation method has been used for the simulation of real flow over a circular cylinder. Pressure distribution and heat flux over the surface of cylinder has been compared with experiment results of Hannemann. Present heat flux results over the cylinder compared well with experiment. Thus, real gas effects in hypersonic flows can be modeled through energy relaxation method.

This paper discribes the viscous interaction of Hypersonic Wedge Flows using Roe FDS and AUSM+. For this purpose we developed the frozen and the equilibrium code and numerically simulated the viscous interaction by changing the surface temperature and the mach number. We used curve fitting data in NASA Reference Publication 1181, 1260 to calculate equilibrium properties. We compare the equilibrium flow with the frozen flow. We conclude that the mach number and the surface temperature are significant parameters, as the surface temperature and the mach number increase the viscous interaction becomes stronger, and we must consider high-temperature effects in hypersonic flow

The M-AUSMPW+ scheme that can capture shock waves exactly with monotonic characteristics is modifided from AUSMPW+ by analyzing the cause of oscillation in shock regions. Firstly shock-capturing characteristics of general FVS including the AUSM-type schemes are investigated in detail, according to the difference between a cell-interface and a sonic transition position. The cause of oscillation is the improper numerical dissipation that could not represent the real Physics. The M-AUSMPW+ could capture shocks exactly without oscillatory behaviors in considering the sonic transition position and an cell-interface position.

In this study, the variation of the flow field in Hydro-reactive engine combustor was numerically studied through 2-dimensional axisymmetric model with aluminum and heated water vapor. For calculating all velocity fields, compressible Navier-Stokes equation was used with Pre-conditioning. AUSM+up(p) method was used to exactly calculate mass flow in the control volume. As using SST model that is a turbulent model, the result had high accuracy for free stream and the flow near the wall. The effects of the temperature, variation of the flow field and distribution of chemical products on inject angle of heated water vapor were studied.

A Numerical Simulation which uses preconditioning algorithm to examine unsteady combustion processes for the AP/HTPB propellant with a converging-diverging nozzle has been compared with experimental data for solid rocket motor. To analysis reacting flow of solid rocket motor, unsteady pressure, temperature contour was simulated by grid moving of propellant.
