    • 1. 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.
