    Nozzle Work
AI Thread Summary
A gas turbine nozzle converts high-temperature, low-velocity air into low-temperature, high-velocity air, primarily through principles of fluid dynamics, including Bernoulli's principle. The discussion highlights the need for a deeper understanding of various nozzle types, particularly in gas turbines and jet engines, which can be convergent, divergent, or a combination of both. Participants suggest that any device altering fluid or gas flow speed qualifies as a nozzle, including those found in carburetors and airbrushes. Several online resources are recommended for further exploration of nozzle mechanics and applications. Overall, the conversation emphasizes the complexity and variety of nozzles in engineering contexts.

all i know about nozzle is that, it converts high temperature, low velocity air to low temperature, high velocity air.
But how does that happen? is it the bernoulii law?
Plz friends help me out and give me full details make it complex as much as u can. I want to know the A-Z about nozzles.
I browsed the net and found nothing useful...
pleasezzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz help me pleasezzzzzz

U mean gasturbine engine's jet nozzle or other. I can give you some data on gas turbine jetnozzle.
 
Yeah, that's something that needs to be asked in more detail. It sounds as if perfectz is asking about a rocket or jet nozzle, but there are lots of other types as well. Essentially, I believe that anything that changes the speed of a fluid or gas flow is considered a nozzle. They can be convergent, divergent, or a combination thereof. Even the venturi in a carbeurator or airbrush is a nozzle.
 
A nozzle is a nozzle is a nozzle. It doesn't matter where the nozzle is physically located.

Here's a video by “driving 4 answers” who seems to me to be well versed on the details of Internal Combustion engines. The video does cover something that's a bit shrouded in 'conspiracy theory', and he touches on that, but of course for phys.org, I'm only interested in the actual science involved. He analyzes the claim of achieving 100 mpg with a 427 cubic inch V8 1970 Ford Galaxy in 1977. Only the fuel supply system was modified. I was surprised that he feels the claim could have been...
TL;DR Summary: Heard in the news about using sonar to locate the sub Hello : After the sinking of the ship near the Greek shores , carrying of alot of people , there was another accident that include 5 tourists and a submarine visiting the titanic , which went missing Some technical notes captured my attention, that there us few sonar devices are hearing sounds repeated every 30 seconds , but they are not able to locate the source Is it possible that the sound waves are reflecting from...
