Abstract:This article proposes the use of cylindrical nozzle interceptors (probes) as an alternative method of rocket engine thrust vector control, which can replace traditional thrust vector control systems. The objective of this paper was to perform a three-dimensional CFD simulation of the gas flow in a rocket engine nozzle with a rod interceptor taken out of the wall without secondary injection, analyzing the calculated flow data and estimating the lateral force. The simulations will be performed in steady-state mo… Show more
