Designing A Transonic Nozzle For Efficient Cooling
Abstract
Design for high-pressure transonic-flow nozzle increases effectiveness of coolant flowing in passages in wall nozzle. Revised curvatures of nozzle wall provide shortened transonic region and enable selection of approach- and discharge-wall angles for maximum cooling. Design enables wall to operate at lower temperature, reducing thermal fatigue and increasing life expectancy of wall. Also enables coolant to flow through wall channels with lower pressure drop and lower pumping pressure.
