Abstract

The nozzle is employed to accelerate and expand or compress the fluid flow. It is generally used to control the rate of flow, velocity, and pressure. The shape of the nozzle also plays a vital role in the process. A nozzle is a tool that directs or modifies the entering fluid which may be a gas or a liquid and rises its velocity. A nozzle can be a channel or canal or tube or a pipe that helps in modifying the speed of the stream of fluid. We have convergent and divergent or both convergent-divergent types of nozzles. Also the varying cross-sections of the area of the nozzles affect the speed of the fluid. That means when the area of the nozzle is reduced, the rate of nozzle fluid raises and in the same way as the area of the nozzle is raised or increased, then the rate of nozzle fluid is reduced. This paper focuses on the study of flow in nozzles and the application of the nozzles for different shape of pintle to increase the performance of propulsion.
