Prescribed wall heating in a rarefied converging-diverging micro-nozzle increases specific impulse from 156 s to 201 s by thermal and pressure thrust gains that exceed the mass-flow penalty from increased blockage.

Rarefaction-induced inflation and similarity breakdown of hypersonic bow shocks over a circular cylinder
Rarefied hypersonic bow shocks over a cylinder inflate via multi-scale compression-relaxation with density becoming nearly rank-one while Mach and thermal fields retain independent modes, as separated by Knudsen and Mach sweeps in DSMC data.

Prescribed Wall-Heat-Flux Control of Blockage and Impulse in a Rarefied Micro-Nozzle
Prescribed wall heating in a rarefied converging-diverging micro-nozzle increases specific impulse from 156 s to 201 s by thermal and pressure thrust gains that exceed the mass-flow penalty from increased blockage.
