- Question
Which of the following statement is wrong?
Options- A. The critical pressure gives the velocity of steam at the throat equal to the velocity of sound.
- B. The flowin the convergent portion of the nozzle is sub-sonic.
- C. The flow in the divergent portion of the nozzle is super-sonic.
- D. To increase the velocity of steam above sonic velocity (super-sonic) by expanding steam below the critical pressure, the divergent portion for the nozzle is not necessary.
- Correct Answer
- To increase the velocity of steam above sonic velocity (super-sonic) by expanding steam below the critical pressure, the divergent portion for the nozzle is not necessary.
