The exhaust nozzle serves back pressure of Pulse detonation combustor, so combustion chamber gets sufficient pressure for propulsion. In this context recent researches are focused on influence of nozzle effect on single cycle detonation wave propagation and propulsion performance of PDE. The effects of various nozzles like convergent-divergent nozzle, convergent nozzle, divergent nozzle and without nozzle at exit section of detonation tubes were computationally investigated to seek the desired propulsion performance. Further the effect of divergent nozzle length and half angle on detonation wave structure was analyzed. The simulations have been done using Ansys 14 Fluent platform. The LES turbulence model was used to simulate the combustion wave reacting flows in combustor with standard wall function. From these numerical simulations among four acquaint nozzles the highest thrust augmentation could be attained in divergent nozzle geometry and detonation wave propagation velocity eventually reaches to 1830 m/s, which is near about C-J velocity. Smaller the divergent nozzle half angle has a significant effect on faster detonation wave propagation.

Diesel engine injector is used for spraying the fuel into the cylinder chamber. Complex phenomenon like cavitation occurs from small scale domain, highly pressurized condition and rapid injection. Flow inside the nozzle affects the whole engine performance including combustion and exhaust, therefore understanding the flow inside the injector nozzle is very important. In this paper, cylindrical and convergent-divergent nozzles are suggested for nozzle types and their influences on nozzle internal flow and nozzle outlet characteristics will be analyzed by changing their outlet diameters.

Supersonic coaxial jets are investigated numerically by using the axisymmetric, Wavier-Stokes equations which are solved using a fully implicit finite volume method. Three different kinds of coaxial nozzles are employed to understand the flow physics involved in the supersonic coaxial jets. Two convergent-divergent supersonic nozzles are designed to have the same Mach number 2.0, and used to compare the coaxial jet flows with those discharging from one constant-area nozzle. The impingement angle of the annular jets are varied. The primary pressure ratio is changed in the range from 2.0 to 10.0 and the assistant jet ratio from 1.0 to 3.0. The results obtained show that the fluctuations of the total pressure and Mach number along the jet axis are much higher in the constant-area nozzle than those in the convergent-divergent nozzles, and the constant-area nozzle lead to higher total pressure losses, compared with the convergent-divergent nozzles. The assistant jets from the annular nozzle affect the coaxial jet flows within the distance less than about ten times the nozzle throat diameter, but beyond it the coaxial jet is conical with self-similar velocity profiles. Increasing both the primary jet pressure ratio and the assistant jet pressure ratio produces a longer coaxial jet core.

The dual-throat nozzle is an extremely effective method in the thrust vectoring control field, utilizing another convergent section to connect with the divergent part of the conventional convergent-divergent nozzle. In the present research, the numerical simulation is conducted to investigate the effects of the injection angle on thrust vectoring performance in a 3D supersonic nozzle. Five injection angles are discussed and core performance variations are analyzed, including the deflection angle, injected mass flow ratio, system resultant thrust ratio, efficiency, Mach number contour and streamline on the symmetry plane, and Mach number contours at different slices. Meaningful conclusions are offered for fighter jet designers.

종래의 위보기 자세에서 용접은 중력이 모재의 표면으로 향하고 있어 용융금속이 중력에 의해 표면방향으로 흘러내리게 되어 용접 실시가 불가능하였다. 이에 Shield Gas Force, Trailing Gas Force 그리고 Ahead Gas Force를 적절히 적용하여 Position Welding에서 중력으로 인해 Molten Metal이 처지는 문제를 극복하여 생산성 향상으로 연결할 수 있음을 선행 실험을 통해 확인하였으나 기존의 C(Convergent)형, CP(Convergent Divergent)형 및 P(Parrallel)형 가스 노즐은 용접조건에 따라 실드 가스의 소모량이 많고, 토출되는 실드가스력이 부족하여 용접시 볼록한 이면 비드 형성을 위한 용융 풀을 효과적으로 제어 할 수 없다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 동일량의 실드 가스 공급시 가스 노즐을 통해 토출되는 실드가스의 소모를 줄이고 실드가스력을 극대화하여 저가의 고생산성을 가진 친 환경 용접기술(Green welding)에 부합하는 CDP(Convergent Divergent Parrallel)형 가스 노즐을 제작하여 기존의 CP형 가스 노즐과 비교 분석하였다. 또한 Overhead Position에서의 비드형상제어와 Flat Position에서 방풍효과를 비교해 보았다. 그 결과 CDP Nozzle은 CP Nozzle보다 동일한 유량에서 풍속은 3.5배, 냉각능력은 1.5배, 가스압력은 6.25배로 우수한 성능을 확인할 수 있었고, Overhead Position에서 가스 유량을 동일하게 하여 용접하였을 때 CP Nozzle의 경우 오목한 이면비드가 나타났지만 CDP Nozzle의 경우 볼록하게 양호한 이면비드 형상이 나타났고, Flat Position에서의 방풍효과 비교실험에서 CDP Nozzle에서는 깊고 균일한 용입을 CP Nozzle에서는 불안정한 용입이 나타났는데 이는 CDP Nozzle의 경우 풍속에 의한 Arc Blow가 적게 발생하여 상대적으로 더 나은 용입을 확인하였다.

Effects of radiation on the wall-friction and heat transfer in the convergent and divergent nozzle of a rocket motor are investigated in the present paper. Radiative heat transfer cools down the core gas, and the decrease in the gas temperature reduces the convective heat transfer on the wall. Radiation heat transfer is estimated by using mean-beam-length approach and core flow is assumed to be one-dimensional isentropic. The compressible thermal boundary layer is solved by a finite difference method. The Cebeci-Smith eddy viscosity model is adopted for the present study. Convective heat transfer is reduced at the throat of the nozzle and is almost compensated with an increase in radiative transfer. In the sequel total heat transfer rate is slightly reduced. However, radiation heat transfer is dominant in the converging part of the nozzle.

This paper presents a preliminary study of a convergent divergent nozzle in an afterburning turbofan engine of a supersonic aircraft engine. In order to design a convergent divergent nozzle, cycle model of a low bypass afterburning turbofan engine of which thrust class is 29,000 lbf at a sea level static condition is established. The cycle analysis at the design point is conducted by Gasturb 12 software and one dimensional gas properties at a downstream direction of the turbine are obtained. The dimension and configuration of an model turbofan engine are derived from take-off operation with wet reheat condition. The off-design cycle calculation is conducted at the all flight envelope on the maximum flight Mach number of 2.0 and maximum flight altitude of 15,000 m.
