Book Description
A highly simplified analysis was used to derive an expression for estimating the induced afterbody drag caused by the turbulent jet-mixing process. The approach estimates the induced velocity produced by the jet-mixing process and uses small perturbation concepts to estimate the resulting pressure change on the afterbody surface from which the induced afterbody drag coefficient is obtained. The theoretical induced afterbody drag (entrainment drag) is combined with the maximum jet plume diameter blockage condition to form a correlation method that accounts for the effect of jet area ratio, exit angle, total temperature, molecular weight and ratio of specific heats for a given external stream Mach number, Reynolds number, and afterbody geometry. For verification, the correlation method was used to predict the drag of an H2 and C2H4 jet from the measured drag of an N2 jet and to predict the drag of a hot jet from the measured drag of a cold jet for both the 15- and 25-deg AGARD afterbody configurations in the Mach number range from 0.6 to 1.5. The average accuracy of the correlation method is better than 10% for both afterbody configurations and is 40 to 50 % more accurate than a correlation method based only on the blockage parameter. A brief numerical study indicates that the major parameter which correlates the jet entrainment effect is the product of the jet gas constant and total temperature. (Author).

Experimental Method for Correcting Nozzle Afterbody Drag for the Effects of Jet Temperature

Book Description
The objective of this investigation was to isolate those parameters defined as jet mixing effects on afterbody drag in an effort to develop a method of correcting or simulating the effects of jet temperature in wind tunnel experiments. Data used in the investigation were obtained from experiments conducted in the AEDC Aerodynamic Wind Tunnel (1T) with a strut-mounted model at free-stream Mach numbers from 0.6 to 1.2. Integrated afterbody pressure drag coefficient data were acquired for three nozzle area ratios (1.0, 1.24, and 2.96) using various unheated jet exhaust gas compositions that allowed a variation in gas constant from 55 to 767 ft/lbf/lbm-deg R. Jet mixing effects on afterbody drag coefficient produced by varying jet gas constant and nozzle area ratio at nozzle design pressure ratio, and the drag effects resulting from variations in nozzle pressure ratio at certain overexpanded jet conditions were observed to be similar functions of mass flux ratio. A simple experimental method has been proposed to allow corrections of afterbody drag coefficient data obtained in the wind tunnel (using an ambient temperature air jet) for the effects of jet gas constant. By inference, a similar drag correction can be obtained for the combined effect of gas constant and temperature, assuming their product defines the effects on drag produced by variations in either property.
