Air thermochemistry in the converging section of de Laval nozzles on hypersonic wind tunnels
State-to-state simulations of nonequilibrium flow in nozzles are made for a range of reservoir conditions and geometries. The geometry of the converging section and throat has little influence on the thermochemistry of the flow. Higher reservoir pressure and temperature both drive the thermochemistr...
