E THEORY AND PRACTICE. Fig. 440 shows the longitudinal section of nozzle constructed bymaking the ordinates = D calculated as above, and by setting off theabscissje to a scale of pressures, the scale chosen being pi-eferably somefunction of the pressure, such as log p. The nozzle must not be… … 2 1 0-5 PRESSURE IN ATMOSPHERES.liG. 440. logP In the case of steam (unlike that of a liquid, where the volumeis constant), the sectional area of a suitable nozzle must provide, notonly for the increasing velocity due to fall of pressure, but for theincreasing specific volume due to the same cause.…
