Book Description
A theoretical and experimental investigation of thrust control by secondary gas injection was completed. Thrust control is treated from the two aspects of thrust modulation and vector control. The thrust modulation study is concerned with the use of injection as a means of throttling the main nozzle flow. The performance (flow throttling and thrust) of a variety of secondary injection configurations was measured with a low pressure-ratio, axially symmetric nozzle as well as a high pressure-ratio, two-dimensional nozzle. The flow throttling results agree with an anlysis based on three flow models and the schlieren photographs (from the two-dimensional tests) show that all three types of flow occur. The vector control study concerns asymmetric secondary gas injection as a means of controlling the direction of the thrust vector.

Book Description
This book focuses on the performance and application of fluidic nozzle throats for solid rocket motors, discussing their flow details and characterization performance, as well as the influence of the particle phase on their performance. It comprehensively covers a range of fluidic nozzle throats in solid rocket motors and is richly illustrated with impressive figures and full-color photographs. It is a valuable resource for students and researchers in the fields of aeronautics, astronautics and related industries wishing to understand the fundamentals and theories of fluidic nozzle throats and engage in fluidic nozzle throat analysis and design.
