Experimental and numerical investigation of the cavitation-induced choked flow in a herschel venturi-tube

摘要

Due to their simple geometry, cavitating Venturi nozzles (CV) are a long time subject of experimental as well as numerical investigations. However, research mostly focused on certain aspects like the comparison of experimental data with numerical cavitation models or the spray development of diesel injection nozzles, but rarely on the choked flow condition itself, especially with regard to liquid flow measurement.
