- Summary:
- A procedure is given for designing two-dimensional nozzles in which the streamline coordinates are computed directly from tabulated flow parameters and appropriate equations. The method of characteristics is used to obtain the first part of the flow, which consists of a continuous expansion from a uniform sonic flow to a radial flow. The Foelsch equations are then used for the transition from radial flow to the final uniform flow. Information is presented which enables the designer to select and compute rapidly the wall contour of any nozzle or series of nozzles for a wide range of length-to-height ratio, Mach number, and wall angle at the inflection point. In general, a nozzle is determined by specifying any two of these three parameters.
