ADVANCED AERODYNAMIC SPIKE CONFIGURATIONS. VOLUME 1. ANALYTICAL AND COLD FLOW STUDIES

Abstract

Investigations of the aerodynamic spike nozzle concept are discussed in this report. Cold-flow test programs to evaluate high area ratio aerodynamic spike nozzles, engine segment testing techniques, and combustor configurations for aerodynamic spike nozzles were completed. A description of the models tested and the test results are presented. Analytical (performance, weight, heat transfer, reliability and cost) and design studies of the aerodynamic spike nozzle concept were conducted and the results are presented.
