  2. Choked flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Choked_flow

    where is the heat capacity ratio / of the gas and where is the total (stagnation) upstream pressure. For air with a heat capacity ratio =, then =; other gases have in the range 1.09 (e.g. butane) to 1.67 (monatomic gases), so the critical pressure ratio varies in the range < / <, which means that, depending on the gas, choked flow usually ...

  3. Normal shock tables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_shock_tables

    The tables below have been calculated using a heat capacity ratio, , equal to 1.4. The upstream Mach number, M 1 {\displaystyle M_{1}} , begins at 1 and ends at 5. Although the tables could be extended over any range of Mach numbers, stopping at Mach 5 is typical since assuming γ {\displaystyle \gamma } to be 1.4 over the entire Mach number ...

  4. Discharge coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discharge_coefficient

    In a nozzle or other constriction, the discharge coefficient (also known as coefficient of discharge or efflux coefficient) is the ratio of the actual discharge to the ideal discharge, [1] i.e., the ratio of the mass flow rate at the discharge end of the nozzle to that of an ideal nozzle which expands an identical working fluid from the same initial conditions to the same exit pressures.

  5. Turbine map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbine_map

    Typical primary nozzle map. The following discussion relates to the expansion system of a 2 spool, high bypass ratio, unmixed, turbofan. On the RHS is a typical primary (i.e. hot) nozzle map (or characteristic). Its appearance is similar to that of a turbine map, but it lacks any (rotational) speed l

  6. Propelling nozzle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propelling_nozzle

    Convergent nozzles are used on many jet engines. If the nozzle pressure ratio is above the critical value (about 1.8:1) a convergent nozzle will choke, resulting in some of the expansion to atmospheric pressure taking place downstream of the throat (i.e., smallest flow area), in the jet wake. Although jet momentum still produces much of the ...

  8. Isentropic nozzle flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isentropic_Nozzle_Flow

    After M e = 1 is reached at the nozzle exit for p r = 0.5283p 0, the condition of choked flow occurs and the velocity throughout the nozzle cannot change with further decreases in p r. This is due to the fact that pressure changes downstream of the exit cannot travel upstream to cause changes in the flow conditions.

  9. Non ideal compressible fluid dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non_ideal_compressible...

    For example, the Mach number evolution of an ideal gas in a supersonic nozzle depends only on the heat capacity ratio (namely on the fluid) and on the exhaust-to-stagnation pressure ratio. [6] Considering real-gas effects, instead, even fixing the fluid and the pressure ratio, different total states yield different Mach profiles. [17]
