Flow Physics - Overview
Before getting into the details of fluid flow through nozzles, a few basic concepts need to be introduced. These concepts are crucial to fully understanding the physics of compressible fluid flow and how it affects nozzle design.
The main concepts that need attention are the speed of sound, Mach numbers, isentropic flows, specific heats of different gases, and stagnation properties.
