Question

When the nozzle operates with the maximum mass flow, the nozzle is said to be
A. choked
B. underdamping
C. overdamping
D. none of these

Answer 1

A. choked is the correct answer

Answer 2

It is said to be choked.

• To expedite or increase the flow of gas to incredible speed, nozzles are utilised.
• The flow rate is at its highest for the specific nozzle if the stream is sonic at the throat.
• By controlling the back pressure, this situation is accomplished.
• Choked flow is what is created when the mass flow rate reaches its maximum value at the throat.
• The fluid velocity rises as it travels through a constriction into a lower pressure environment at a certain temperature and pressure.
