Computational Analysis of Shockwave in Convergent Divergent Nozzle
نویسندگان
چکیده
The objective of this paper is to computationally analyse shock waves in the Convergent Divergent (CD) Nozzle. The commercial CFD code Fluent is employed to analyse the compressible flow through the nozzle. The analysis includes static pressure, temperature, Mach number and density of the flow for different nozzle pressure ratios (NPR i.e., the ratio between exit pressure of the nozzle to ambient pressure). The results are compared with the analytical results of quasi-one dimensional equation. The flow characteristic before and after the shock is discussed.

Numerical Investigation of Nozzle Shape Effect on Shock Wave in Natural Gas Processing
Natural gas flow contains undesirable solid particles, liquid condensation, and/or oil droplets and requires reliable removing equipment to perform filtration. Recent natural gas processing applications are demanded compactness and reliability of process equipment. Since conventional means are sophisticated in design, poor in efficiency, and continue lacking robust, a supersonic nozzle has been...
متن کاملTheory of a stationary current-free double layer in a collisionless plasma.
Current-free double layers can develop in a collisionless, inertia-controlled plasma with two electron populations, expanding in a convergent-divergent nozzle. The double layer characteristics depend on whether they develop at the nozzle divergent side, convergent side, or throat. The divergent-geometry double layer describes faithfully the Hairapetian-Stenzel experiment [Phys. Rev. Lett. 65, 1...
متن کاملShock Motion and Flow Instabilities in Supersonic Nozzle Flow Separation
This study evaluates the role of shock wave motion on the instability of the plume exiting an over-expanded, convergent-divergent nozzle. An array of wall pressure transducers was used to track the position of the shock in time, and a Pitot probe was used to obtain simultaneous measurement of the total pressure fluctuations at various points in the jet that emerges from the separation shock. An...
