Separation of Isotope Mixture by Nozzle Process

A MODEL STUDY OF LASER ISOTOPE SEPARATION BY PHOTOIONIZATION OR PHOTODISSOCIATION PROCESS

In this study, the selective photoexication of isotopic mixtures by laser light is investigated. Atomic and molecular methods are examined and rate equations are derived for both cases. Two and three step photoionization techniques are considered and rate equations are solved for ion yields. The molecular photodissociation process is also studied and the dependence of the dissociation produ...

Isotope Effects, Isotope Separation and Isotope Fractionation

Instability of shock-induced nozzle flow separation

We investigate experimentally the causes of jet plume instability and enhanced mixing observed in the exhaust of shock-containing convergent-divergent nozzles. Key features of the internal flow are the separation shock, separation shear layers, and pattern of alternating expansion and compression waves downstream of the shock. We focus on two possible reasons for this instability—the motion of ...

Numerical Investigation of Supersonic Nozzle Flow Separation

S EPARATION of supersonic flow in a convergent–divergent nozzle is a fundamental fluid phenomenon that affects a large variety of applications, from fuel systems to aircraft engine nozzles. When a supersonic nozzle is operated at pressure ratioswell below its design point, a shock forms inside the nozzle andflowdownstreamof the shock separates from the nozzle walls. Even though flow separation ...
