Abstract

This paper presents unique and complementary results from experimental testing of moist air expansion in a de Laval nozzle. The measurements of unsteady flow phenomena included static pressure distribution on the nozzle wall and images captured using the Schlieren technique. The experiments were performed for convergent-divergent nozzle of arc shape with different pressure ratios, 1.5, 1.6 and 1.7. This paper aims to investigate the instability of the normal shock wave generated in the divergent section of the nozzle due to increased back pressure.
