Abstract
One of the major design aspects of jet propulsion engines is the nozzle design. The value of thrust generated by the nozzle is dependent on both the nozzle design and the flight altitude. The present paper is intended to shed more light on the jet flow structure and its evolution with flight altitude. In addition, the variation of thrust generated by the nozzle with flight altitude is addressed. A well-defined nozzle profile is adopted as a case study and numerical simulation using a commercial CFD tool is conducted. The solution method is validated by reproducing the experiments conducted on the case study nozzle.
