Transonic Evaporation Waves in a Spherically Symmetric Nozzle

This paper studies the liquid to vapor phase transition in a cone shaped nozzle. Using the geometric method presented in [32, 34], we further develop results on subsonic and supersonic evaporation waves in [14] to transonic waves. It is known that transonic waves do not exist if restricted solely to the slow system on the slow manifolds [14]. Thus we consider the existence of transonic waves th...

Transonic similarity solution for aligned field MHD nozzle flow

S U M M A R Y The transonic flow near the throat of a converging-diverging nozzle of a gas with infinite electrical conductivity is considered. The magnetic field B is everywhere aligned with the velocity q so that the equations describing the flow are reducible to those of ordinary gasdynamics. Thus, it is possible to utilize the transonic similarity solution of Tomotika and Tamada [3] to stud...

The Collapse of an Axi-symmetric, Swirling Vortex Sheet

An axi-symmetric and swirling vortex sheet is investigated as the simplest ow in which there is non-trivial vortex stretching and as a possible setting for studying vortex cancellation and singularity formation. Rayleigh's criterion indicates linear stability of a single sheet but instability for other conngurations of sheets. Due to the simplicity of vortex sheet problems, the linear modes and...

Computation of Turbulent Separated Nozzle Flow by a Lag Model

TECHNICAL NOTES are short manuscripts describing new developments or important results of a preliminary nature. These Notes cannot exceed 6 manuscript pages and 3 figures; a page of text may be substituted for a figure and vice versa. After informal review by the editors, they may be published within a few months of the date of receipt. Style requirements are the same as for regular contributio...
