TURBULENT FLOW IN A CYLINDRICAL CIRCULAR-RECESS CHANNEL
K. N. Volkov, S. V. Denisikhin, and V. N. Emel'yanov UDC 532.529 Modeling of a turbulent flow in a cylindrical solid propellant charge channel having a circular recess (compensator) has been performed. Different variants of the compensator position and connection to the channel are discussed. The influence of the geometric and consumption factors on the formation of distributions of the gas-dynamic parameters and characteristics of turbulence in the working region has been investigated.
