CALIBRATION OF A MACH 12 SQUARE NOZZLE

Abstract

An experimental investigation was made of the flow field in the test section of a Mach 12 nozzle having all square cross sections. Pressure as well as temperature measurements were made in the test section of the nozzle. The results show that the Mach number within the test rhombus of the nozzle was 12. 10 = 0.20. Furthermore, the problem of focusing, which is usually encountered in axially symmetric nozzles, is eliminated.
