Why is it important?

ASME nozzles are used as flow meters to measure air flow rate and also as reference nozzles with known performance characteristics of flow rate and thrust.

Perspectives

The ASME nozzle target equations used in this report have been used for decades as a reference standard for aircraft jet engine exhaust nozzle testing and other similar tests.
