Abstract

A rocket nozzle (8) includes a dual-bell nozzle (10) and a gas introducing section (40A, 40B, 40C, 40D) configured to introduce gas into space (80) surrounded by the dual-bell nozzle. Combustion gas flows in the space. The dual-bell nozzle includes a first stage nozzle (20) bell-shaped and surrounding an upstream portion (81) of the space, and a second stage nozzle (30) bell-shaped and surrounding a downstream portion (82) of the space. The dual-bell nozzle has an inflection point (12) between the first stage nozzle and the second stage nozzle. The gas introducing section includes a gas inlet (45, 63) provided to an inner wall surface of the first stage nozzle. The gas is introduced into the space from the gas inlet.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a rocket nozzle and method for controlling the flow of combustion gases within a rocket engine. Background technique [0002] Figure 1 shows a bell nozzle 100A as a rocket nozzle. When the flow path cross-sectional area at the throat 101A is At and the flow path cross-sectional area at the nozzle outlet 102A is A1, the expansion ratio eA of the bell nozzle 100A is determined by the ratio between A1 and At (A1 / At) said. Figure 2 shows a bell nozzle 100B as a rocket nozzle. When the flow path cross-sectional area at the throat 101B is At and the flow path cross-sectional area at the nozzle outlet 102B is A2, the expansion ratio eB of the bell nozzle 100B is represented by the ratio of (A2 / At). Here, A2 is greater than A1, and thus eB is greater than eA. [0003] The specific impulse, which represents the performance of the rocket nozzle, is known. The specific impulse varies according to the expansion ratio and the ...
