Hey everyone, so today we are going to learn about Nozzles and Diffusers in a simple or easy way.
So, without wasting much time lets get started.
~ it is used in gas turbines, hydro turbines & steam turbines.
~ centrifugal pump it converts the kinetic energy of the fluid into pressure energy.
So, without wasting much time lets get started.
NOZZLE
- Nozzle converts the pressure energy into kinetic energy and Diffuser is just reverse of Nozzle as it converts kinetic energy into pressure energy.
- The nozzle can be convergent and can be divergent and it has a varying cross-section.
- And we can say that it's main purpose is to obtain kinetic energy means at the expense of pressure energy we obtain pressure energy.
- And this high-velocity jet which emerges from the nozzle is used for many purposes or a variety of purposes.
Where are nozzles used?
- And the Nozzle's mass flow rate throughout the passage remains constant.
- The high-velocity jet which is coming out of the nozzle hits the turbine blades and due to this, the rotor starts rotating in a particular direction.
- And because of this high grid energy is produced means the pressure energy generates the kinetic energy.
- Three types of Nozzles are their converging nozzle, diverging nozzle, convergent and divergent nozzle.
Diffuser
- As I have told you in starting that Diffusers converts the kinetic energy into pressure energy. Which means it is reverse of the Nozzle.
Where are diffusers used?
