Resumen
As a key component of the solid rocket motor, nozzle ablation is very important to the performance of the motor. In order to study the influence of the law of nozzle ablation on motor performance, a two-dimensional axisymmetric model of a ground state nozzle and vacuum state nozzle before and after ablation was constructed on the basis of a reference profile, and the change law of pressure, temperature and velocity with ablation were studied. The comprehensive performance of the nozzle before and after ablation was calculated to evaluate the influence of ablation on motor performance. It was found that the profile ablation changed the shock wave distribution in the flow field of the expansion section, and the appearance of the ablation step also led to a new internal shock wave. The gas was compressed, and the flow direction, velocity, pressure, temperature, etc., were changed. After the ablation, the temperature and pressure of the nozzle outlet location increased, the velocity decreased, and the total thrust and specific impulse decreased.
