Abstract: | The flow of a hydrogen-oxygen mixture diluted with argon in a supersonic axisymmetric nozzle consisting of an inlet cylinder, a convergent region, a cylindrical throat, and a divergent region is considered. The supersonic flow enters the channel along the axis of symmetry. The flow structure is calculated with allowance for hydrogen ignition. A possibility of stabilizing the combustion zone is studied and the forces acting on the nozzle from the flow are determined. The problem is solved in the two-dimensional approximation with account for detailed combustion kinetics. |
