Abstract

The problem of designing the supersonic part of nozzles creating “source” type flows self-similar with respect to the isentropic exponent is solved. A function that approximates the geometry of nozzle channels with cone angles up to 15° is derived. The results of solving the direct nozzle problem, which confirm the accuracy of the approximation obtained, are presented.
