Abstract

In order to study the infrared radiation (IR) characteristics of rocket engine plume in the mid infrared band, a calculation model for IR transfer of rocket engine plume was built. The flow field data are calculated by software FLUENT. Based on HITRAN database, the IR characteristic parameters are calculated after spectral line correction. The Line of Sight (LoS) is used to solve the radiation characteristics in the plume flow field, and the IR characteristics distribution of the plume in the mid infrared band is obtained, which agree well with the results from open literature. The method has the advantages of simple model, less parameters and fast calculation speed in this paper.
