The present thesis presents a comprehensive, up-to-date review of supersonic flow separation and side-loads in internal nozzle flows with ensuing side-loads. In addition to results available in the literature, it also contains previously unpublished material based on this author’s work, whose main contributions are

  1. discovery the role of transition between different separation patterns for side-load generation
  2. experimental verification of side-loads due to aeroelastic effects and
  3. contributions to the analysis and scaling of side-loads.
