NUMERICAL INVESTIGATION OF CHOCKED CONVERGING-DIVERGING NOZZLES FOR THRUSTER APPLICATION

The need for low-thrust propulsion systems for small scale spacecraft is growing. Low thrust characteristics generally lead to low Reynolds number flows from propulsive devices that utilize converging-diverging nozzle. In the present work, seven choked converging-diverging nozzle flow characteristi...
