Effect of mach number in a suddenly expanded flow for area ratio 4.84

The experiments were carried out to assess the effect of Mach number on base pressure and control effectiveness in a suddenly expanded duct. In the present study the Mach number at the nozzle exit and the nozzle pressure ratio (NPR) are the flow parameters considered. The area ratio (i.e. ratio betw...
