Compressibility Effects in Two-Phase Flow

A gas-water mixture, when expanded through a de Laval nozzle, acts as a compressible fluid. A general expression for the flow process in an idealized mixture is developed. The general thermo-hydrodynamic relations for flow through a de Laval nozzle are developed. The magnitude of the velocity of an...

Zusammenfassung:A gas-water mixture, when expanded through a de Laval nozzle, acts as a compressible fluid. A general expression for the flow process in an idealized mixture is developed. The general thermo-hydrodynamic relations for flow through a de Laval nozzle are developed. The magnitude of the velocity of an energy pulse or signal through the mixture is determined and is compared with the velocity of flow. Experimental results are compared with those predicted using the equations developed.
