Abstract

A comparison of computational methods used in the calculation of nozzle aftbody flows at subsonic and transonic speeds is presented. One class of methods reviewed are those which patch together solutions for the inviscid, boundary-layer, and plume flow regions. The second class of methods reviewed are those which computationally solve the Navier-Stokes equations over nozzle aftbodies with jet exhaust flow. Computed results from the methods are compared with experiment. Advantages and disadvantages of the various methods are discussed along with opportunities for further development of these methods.
