Abstract: A transient numerical framework incorporating dynamic mesh techniques was developed to simulate the launch process. On this basis, a thermal–fluid–structural multi-physics coupling paradigm was proposed to interpret the evolution of the flow field and the associated load response throughout the entire firing sequence. The results show that flow development follows a multi-stage dynamic pattern, comprising gas-impact filling, gap-jet formation, and subsequent free-jet expansion. A pronounced spatially heterogeneous phase lag was observed in the pressure–Mach number response. This phenomenon arises from a mismatch among the characteristic time scales of pressure-wave propagation, flow inertia, and shock–boundary-layer interaction. Quantitative analysis further indicates that the spatial superposition of high-temperature zones, high-Mach regions, and elevated-pressure areas activates a thermal–fluid–structural positive-feedback loop that drives the local peak temperature to approximately 2.5 × 103 K. The temperature response lags behind the pressure maximum by approximately 30–50 ms, reflecting the governing time scale of thermal inertia. In addition, vortical structures near the tube base account for nearly 15% of the total thrust. These findings provide a theoretical foundation for predicting transient peak loads in concentric cylindrical systems and for optimizing instantaneous thermal protection strategies.
