Reignition phenomena occurring in a supersonic nozzle flow may present a crucial safety issue for rocket propulsion systems. These phenomena concern mainly rocket engines which use H2gas (GH2) in the film cooling device, particularly when the nozzle operates under over expanded flow conditions at sea level or at low altitudes. Consequently, the induced wall thermal loads can lead to the nozzle geometry alteration, which in turn, leads to the appearance of strong side loads that may be detrimental to the rocket engine structural integrity. It is therefore necessary to understand both aerodynamic and chemical mechanisms that are at the origin of these processes. This paper is a numerical contribution which reports results from CFD analysis carried out for supersonic reactive flows in a planar nozzle cooled with GH2film. Like the experimental observations, CFD simulations showed their ability to highlight these phenomena for the same nozzle flow conditions. Induced thermal load are also analyzed in terms of cooling efficiency and the results already give an idea on their magnitude. It was also shown that slightly increasing the film injection pressure can avoid the reignition phenomena by moving the separation shock towards the nozzle exit section.

The Arnold Engineering Development Center (AEDC) is installing a freejet test capability into the Aero-propulsion Systems Test Facility (ASTF). The freejet will provide the capability for ground determination of turbine engine and aircraft inlet compatibility by utilizing full-scale inlets and engines as test articles in a simulated flight environment. The details of the design, installation, and projected testing capability are described for a 57 ft2 supersonic nozzle and a 77 ft2 subsonic nozzle. Support systems for mechanically pitching and yawing the freejet nozzles are also reported as well as the test cell hardware for capturing the freejet nozzle flow. The plans for demonstrating the freejet capability prior to its initial operational date are explained. The technology development efforts to validate and utilize the freejet test capabilities are also described.
