A Solid propellant Retro Rocket Motor with a C-D Nozzle is analyzed using Ansys Fluent 17.1 .Steady State analysis of a retro rocket motor has been done for Viscous models like Inviscid and k-ɛ (Realizable) with air and gas as working fluids. The dimensions and the boundary conditions of the nozzle are kept consistent for both the viscous models to compare the exit parameters to theoretical values obtained by using one dimensional equations. The results obtained shows that the exit temperature of the nozzle in Inviscid viscous model is higher than theoretical value by 2.2% and for k-ɛ viscous model it is higher by 5.4% with gas as working fluid.
