Abstract

In hypersonic flight, frictional drag is an important factor affecting the overall engine performance. The wall frictional drag analysis and drag reduction technology of a unilateral expanding tail nozzle under typical working conditions are carried out by means of two-dimensional Reynolds-averaged N-S equations and SST k − ω turbulence model. The effects of hydrogen injection and combustion with different mass flow rates under different jet positions on the wall friction resistance are analyzed and compared, and the results show that, under the appropriate opening position, a better drag reduction effect can be obtained by injecting hydrogen with a mainstream flow rate of about 2.5%, which can achieve a reduction of 43.7%.
