Best Answer

Convergent nozzle indicates nozzles will converge with an end closing together at the end

divergent nozzles increase size at the end.

If air flows in this direction: --->

Convergent nozzle > Divergent nozzle <

Why is convergent-divergent nozzle generally used in steam turbines?

A convergent-divergent nozzle is generally used in steam turbines. This is because it drives generators in producing electricity with the use of turbine rotors with curved axes.


Why Fluid Speed Increases in the Divergent Portion of a Convergent-Divergent nozzle?

Because the fluid is allowed to expand in the nozzle it increases velocity to fill in the voids created by the shape of the nozzle. The convergent point of the nozzle acts like a bottleneck trying to slow the fluid and compress it into the reduced crosssection of the nozzle. As it leaves the minimum crosssection it expands into the divergent spaces of the nozzle increasing in velocity as it expands. ++_+ No: it gains velocity through the convergence but in the diverging section, trades velocity for pressure.


What are the advantages and disadvantages of flow nozzle?

One disadvantage in the convergent-divergent nozzle as a shock wave can take place in the nozzle A nozzle is a device that converts pressure energy to kinetic energy (increasing fluid velocity on the account of static pressure) For a convergent nozzle there is no disadvantages as it can raise the fluid velocity only for the sonic speed the convergent-divergent type raises the velocity to over than sonic speed making supersonic flow, this could make a shock wave in the nozzle that turns the supersonic flow to subsonic flow
