Flows of gas-particle mixtures with size-distribution
Abstract
The nozzle flow of gas-particle mixtures is treated by assuming a continuous distribution of particle sizes. A distribution function for the particle radii is introduced in order to take into account the continuous distribution of particle sizes. The flow regimes of interest include continuum, slip, transition and free-molecular flows. The rarefaction effect on the nozzle performance is also investigated in detail.
