Calculations were made for high-area-ratio H2/O2 rocket nozzles by using the RPLUS code which employs an implicit finite volume, lower-upper symmetric successive over-relaxation scheme to solve the Navier-Stokes equations and the species equations in a coupled manner. The combustion processes of hydrogen and oxygen are modeled by an 8-species and 18-step reaction mechanism, and the turbulence is simulated by the Baldwin-Lomax turbulence model with a pressure gradient correction on the van Driest's damping constant in the inner-layer model. The calculated results for two different rocket nozzles are presented as contours, profiles, and performance values. The predicted specific impulse and thrust agree well with the experimental data and those from the industry standard code. It is demonstrated that the RPLUS code can be used for analysis of rocket nozzles.
