چکیده

We establish the existence and stability of multidimensional transonic flows with transonic shocks through an infinite nozzle of arbitrary cross-sections, including a slowly varying de Lavel nozzle. The transonic flow is governed by the inviscid steady potential flow equation with supersonic upstream flow at the entrance, uniform subsonic downstream flow at the infinite exit, and the slip boundary condition on the nozzle boundary. The multidimensional transonic nozzle problem is reformulated into a free boundary problem, for which the free boundary is a transonic shock dividing two phases of C1,α flow in the infinite nozzle, and the equation is hyperbolic in the supersonic upstream phase and elliptic in the subsonic downstream phase. We further develop a nonlinear iteration approach and employ its advantages to deal with such a free boundary problem in the unbounded domain and to solve the multidimensional transonic nozzle problem in a direct fashion. Our results indicate that, for the transonic nozzle problem, there exists a transonic flow such that the flow is divided into a C1,α subsonic flow up to the nozzle boundary in the unbounded downstream region from the supersonic upstream flow by a C1,α multidimensional transonic shock that is orthogonal to the nozzle boundary at every intersection point, and the uniform velocity state at the infinite exit in the downstream direction is uniquely determined by the supersonic upstream flow at the entrance which is sufficiently close to a uniform flow. The uniform velocity state at the exit can not be apriori prescribed from the corresponding pressure for such a flow to exist. We further prove that the transonic flow with a transonic shock is unique and stable with respect to the nozzle boundary and the smooth supersonic upstream flow at the entrance.

Transonic Shocks in Multidimensional Divergent Nozzles

We establish existence, uniqueness and stability of transonic shocks for steady compressible non-isentropic potential flow system in a multidimensional divergent nozzle with an arbitrary smooth cross-section, for a prescribed exit pressure. The proof is based on solving a free boundary problem for a system of partial differential equations consisting of an elliptic equation and a transport equa...

Global Solutions to the Compressible Euler Equations with Geometrical Structure

We prove the existence of global solutions to the Euler equations of compressible isentropic gas dynamics with geometrical structure, including transonic nozzle flow and spherically symmetric flow. Due to the presence of the geometrical source terms, the existence results themselves are new, especially as they pertain to radial flow in an unbounded region, |~x| ≥ 1, and to transonic nozzle flow...

Transonic Potential Flows in A Convergent–Divergent Approximate Nozzle

In this paper we prove existence, uniqueness and regularity of certain perturbed (subsonic–supersonic) transonic potential flows in a two-dimensional Riemannian manifold with “convergent–divergent” metric, which is an approximate model of the de Laval nozzle in aerodynamics. The result indicates that transonic flows obtained by quasi-one-dimensional flow model in fluid dynamics are stable with ...

Transonic similarity solution for aligned field MHD nozzle flow

S U M M A R Y The transonic flow near the throat of a converging-diverging nozzle of a gas with infinite electrical conductivity is considered. The magnetic field B is everywhere aligned with the velocity q so that the equations describing the flow are reducible to those of ordinary gasdynamics. Thus, it is possible to utilize the transonic similarity solution of Tomotika and Tamada [3] to stud...
