  1. Supersonic Flow in Diverging Nozzle - Physics Forums

    Nov 13, 2011 · The discussion centers on the behavior of fluid dynamics in diverging nozzles, particularly regarding supersonic flow. It is established that as fluid velocity exceeds the speed of …

  2. Why Does Flow Become Supersonic in the Diverging Section of a Nozzle?

    Sep 6, 2007 · i just started reading about nozzles and turbines in my semester course. i went through converging diverging nozzles. for achieving a supersonic flow, a converging diverging nozzle is used. …

  3. Identifying Converging and Diverging Lenses: Explaining with Principal ...

    Feb 1, 2005 · To determine whether a lens is converging or diverging, analyze the behavior of the principal rays after they pass through the lens. A convex lens will cause rays to converge at a point …

  4. Mirrors & Lenses: Understanding Virtual and Real Images

    Mar 10, 2011 · Homework Statement True or False 1. A single diverging lens can only make a virtual image. 2. When parallel rays strike a concave spherical mirror with radius R they are focussed …

  5. Object 18cm in Front of Lens to Reduce Image by 2.0

    Aug 3, 2008 · The problem involves a diverging lens with a focal length of -12cm and an object initially placed 18cm in front of it. To achieve an image size reduced by a factor of 2.0, the object must be …

  6. Magnification (major confusion with the signs) • Physics Forums

    Oct 24, 2010 · This discussion centers on the confusion surrounding magnification signs in optics, specifically when dealing with converging and diverging lenses. Key conclusions include that real …

  7. Is there a pressure ratio limit for choked flow through a c-d nozzle ...

    Jun 21, 2024 · The discussion centers on the limits of choked flow through converging-diverging (c-d) nozzles, specifically addressing the effects of diameter and angle in the divergent section. It is …

  8. Easy way to remember imaging properties of lens? - Physics Forums

    Oct 21, 2005 · Is there an easy way to remember what kind of images will be formed from converging/diverging lens depending on where you place the object relative to the focus? For …

  9. Converging Vs diverging sequences - Physics Forums

    Sep 30, 2020 · A sequence is made up of two sequences an=(n^2)/(n+2) - (n^2)/(n+3) The problem asks for the solver to work out if it's converging or diverging, and find a limit if possible. My first thought …

  10. How to determine when compressible flow is choked?

    Jun 9, 2024 · In compressible flow, choking occurs at the minimum cross-sectional area, or throat, when the upstream to downstream pressure ratio is 0.528 for air. The introduction of a diverging section …
