Three-Dimensional Nozzle Design for Maximum Thrust. Volume II. Computer Program Manual.

Abstract

The problem of designing three-dimensional (nonaxisymmetric) supersonic nozzles which produce the maximum axial thrust for a prescribed upstream flow field, mass flow rate, exit lip shape and position, and ambient pressure has been formulated and numerically solved. The formulation was written to consider a three-dimensional, supersonic, isoenergetic, homentropic flow of a perfect gas. This volume contains a description of the computer program organization and overlay structure, a description of each main program and each subroutine, a description of the input parameters, and the input listing and selected output for a sample case to illustrate the use of the design programs.
