Experimental investigation of the base flow and base pressure of sudden expansion nozzle

This paper presents an experimental investigation of an airflow from convergent- divergent axisymmetric nozzles expanded suddenly into circular duct of larger cross- sectional area than that of nozzle exit area, focusing attention on the base pressure and the flow development in the duct. To investi...
