“…Nonetheless, adopting green propellants does not imply that these propellants represent entirely clean alternatives without any negative impacts on the environment. Given that all launch vehicles produce exhaust which typically may include [32][33][34] water vapor, alumina, nitrogen oxides, carbon dioxide, inorganic chlorine, sulfates, and soot, it is evident that green propellants do equally impact the environment. However, they generally tend to be easier and safer to handle than conventional propellants, resulting in reduced costs associated with propellant storage, transport, on-ground operations and in spacecraft development.…”

Aiming at calculating and studying the flow field characteristics of engine exhaust plume and comparative analyzing the effects of different chemical reaction mechanisms on the engine exhaust plume flow field characteristics, a method considering fully the combustion state influence is put forward, which is applied to exhaust plume flow field calculation of multinozzle engine. On this basis, a three-dimensional numerical analysis of the effects of different chemical reaction mechanisms on LOX/ kerosene engine exhaust plume flow field characteristics was carried out. It is found that multistep chemical reaction can accurately describe the combustion process in the LOX/kerosene engine, the average chamber pressure from the calculation is 4.63% greater than that of the test, and the average chamber temperature from the calculation is 3.34% greater than that from the thermodynamic calculation. The exhaust plumes of single nozzle and double nozzle calculated using the global chemical reaction are longer than those using the multistep chemical reaction; the highest temperature and the highest velocity on the plume axis calculated using the former are greater than that using the latter. The important influence of chemical reaction mechanism must be considered in the study of the fixing structure of double nozzle engine on the rocket body.
