Nozzle
Applet (Virginia Tech) - The purpose of this applet is to
simulate the operation of a converging-diverging nozzle, perhaps
the most important and basic piece of engineering hardware associated
with propulsion and the high speed flow of gases. This device
was invented by Carl de Laval toward the end of the l9th century
and is thus often referred to as the 'de Laval' nozzle. This applet
is intended to help students of compressible aerodynamics visualize
the flow through this type of nozzle at a range of conditions.

- Glenn Research Center - A nozzle is a relatively simple
device, just a specially shaped tube through which hot gases flow...

Nozzle - This is a beta version of a Nozzle Simulator program,
and you are invited to participate in the beta testing. If you
find errors in the program or would like to suggest improvements,
please send an e-mail to benson@grc.nasa.gov.
Nozzle
Theory - by Richard Nakka - The rocket nozzle can surely be
described as the epitome of elegant simplicity. The primary function
of a nozzle is to channel and accelerate the combustion products
produced by the burning propellant in such as way as to maximize
the velocity of the exhaust at the exit, to supersonic velocity...
