Hello!
I'm currently working on a school project, and I'm researching nozzle design. As of now I am having issues with understanding if exit velocity varies with altitude, and if so..how exactly?
I know that exit velocity depends on nozzle geometry, and assuming we are using 1D flow, one could use isotropic relations to calculate it.That being said the only thing I can think of that could cause exit velocity to change is chamber temperature, and exit temperature.
Any explanation as to how exactly this might work would be great! Thanks for your time!
