Results of AGARD assessment of prediction capabilities for nozzle afterbody flowsThis paper presents a brief review of an assessment conducted by AGARD Working Group 08 to determine the capabilities of theoretical methods for predicting the flow over nozzle afterbody configurations. A series of test cases were selected for which extensive experimental data were available. The assessment was limited to axisymmetric nozzle configurations with a jet simulated with high-pressure air. Contributions were solicited from researchers, identified by a literature search, who had developed methods for predicting such flows. Predictions made with methods that varied in complexity from multicomponent techniques to solutions of the Navier Stokes equations were received. The status of the theoretical methods for predicting nozzle afterbody flows is illustrated by comparison with the experimental measurements.
