Numerical and non-linear internal ballistics analyses are conducted to investigate the performance characteristics of a pintle reciprocating in a nozzle. A conformal sliding mesh is successfully implemented to maintain smooth and continuous flow properties at the boundary of a moving pintle block. The proper mesh size is determined via a grid dependency test. The pintle nozzle operates under over-expansion...
