Simulation Supersonic Steam Flow in a Converging–Diverging Nozzle Using Different State Equations

Article Preview

Abstract:

In order to learn the difference and accuracy of state equations in supersonic steam flow, a classic converging–diverging nozzle flow field was simulated using CFD method. Compared to experiment value, the results shows that IF97 real gas model agrees well, and several parameters were discussed. This paper will providing fundamental basis for SE choosing in supersonic steam simulation field.
