    摘要、提要註: A novel mechanism for vectoring the thrust of a supersonic, air-breathing engine was analyzed numerically using ANSYS Fluent. The mechanism uses two asymmetrically staggered ramps; one placed at the throat, the other positioned at the exit lip of the nozzle. The nozzle was designed using published flow data, isentropic relationships, and piecewise quartic splines. The design was verified numerically and was in fair agreement with the analytical data. Using the steady-state pressure-based solver, along with the realizable kappa - epsilon turbulence model, a total of eighteen simulations were conducted: three ramp lengths at three angles, using two sets of inlet boundary conditions (non-afterburning and afterburning). The vectoring simulations showed that the afterburning flow yields a lower flow deflection distribution, shown by the calculated average deflection angle and area-weighted integrals of the distributions. The data implies that an aircraft can achieve an average thrust vectoring angle of approximately 30° in a given direction with the longest ramp length and largest ramp angle configuration. With increasing ramp angle, the static pressure across the nozzle inlet increased, causing concern for potential negative effects on the engine's turbine. The mechanism, for which a provisional patent application has been filed, will require further work to investigate the maximum possible thrust vectoring angle, including experiments.
