Abstract

A simple relation is derived concerning to LITVC (Liquid Injection Thrust Vector Control) characteristics based on a model taken into consideration of the momentum exchange between the injectant and the main nozzle flow. In this model, it is assumed that the injectant forms an equivalent slender body being swept away by main nozzle flow after injection and the side force is generated with the disturbed wall pressur around the equivalent slender body. General conclusions from numerical calculations using the slender body theory for typical bodies of revolution are effectively used to derive a simple relation. This relation expressing the dependency of Isps (specific impulse of secondary injection) on the injectant flow rate and the chamber pressure has been examined by correlating experimental values obtained in the series of experiments conducted by the Institute of Space and Aeronautical Science of University of Tokyo.
