Study of the Two-Dimensional Flow Through a Converging-Diverging NozzleA study of a flow through a straight converging-diverging nozzle of simple design has been made preliminary to studies of other supersonic flows. The diverging part of the nozzle was designed by the Prandtl-Busemann method to give a uniform pressure at its exit of 0.298 times the initial total head, that is, to give a Mach number of 1.436. Schlieren photographs of the flow and pressure-distribution measurements along the diverging part of the nozzle were made. A comparison of the theory with these measurements is presented.
