Title

BEM model of ablation characteristics of a thrust vector control vane

Abstract

A dual reciprocity boundary element method is implemented to predict ablation in model TVC vanes. A moving front algorithm is described. Experimental data are available from tests performed on scaled vanes. Numerical results for recession of quarter-scale and half-scale vanes compare well with experimental data. Future work includes accounting for temperature variation of the thermophysical properties and full coupling of the flowfield and conduction solutions.
