The equations of the steady state, compressible inviscid gaseous flow are linearized in a form suitable for application to nozzles of the Laval type. The procedure in the supersonic phase is verified by comparing solutions so obtained with those derived by the method of characteristics in two and three dimensions. Likewise, the solutions in the transonic phase are com pared with those obtained by other investigators. The linearized equation is then used to investigate the nat re of non-symmetric flow in rocket nozzles. It is found that if the flow from the combustion chamber into the nozzle is non-symmetric, the magnitude and direction of the turning couple produced by the emergent jet is dependent on the profile of the nozzle and it is possible to design profiles such that the turning couples or lateral forces are zero. The optimum nozzle so designed is independent of the pressure and also of the magnitude of the non-symmetry of the entry flow. The formulae by which they are obtained have been checked by extensive static and projection tests with simulated rocket test vehicles which are described in this paper.

AbstractThe study of chaotic vibration for multidimensional PDEs due to nonlinear boundary conditions is challenging. In this paper, we mainly investigate the chaotic oscillation of a two-dimensional non-strictly hyperbolic equation due to an energy-injecting boundary condition and a distributed self-regulating boundary condition. By using the method of characteristics, we give a rigorous proof of the onset of the chaotic vibration phenomenon of the zD non-strictly hyperbolic equation. We have also found a regime of the parameters when the chaotic vibration phenomenon occurs. Numerical simulations are also provided.
