An improved analytical model of the separated region on nozzle boattailsA viscous flow calculation is formulated for modelling the effects of separated, reverse flow regions on nozzle afterbody pressures and drags at subsonic Mach numbers. A discriminating streamline approach is used. Effects of skin friction, axial pressure gradient, and nozzle jet entrainment on the separated discriminating streamline shape are included. The viscous flow calculation is coupled to a potential flow calculation. The combined analysis is found to accurately predict both the magnitude of the measured afterbody pressures and drag, and also their variation with Reynolds number, Mach number and afterbody shape.
