On steady compressible flows in a duct with variable sections. / CUHK electronic theses & dissertations collection

First, we investigate the steady Euler flows through a general 3-D axially symmetric infinitely long nozzles without irrotationality. Global existence and uniqueness of subsonic solution are established, when the variation of Bernoulli's function in the upstream is sufficiently small and mass flux has an upper critical value. / Second, we concerns the following transonic shock phenomena in a class of de Laval nozzles with porous medium posed by Courant-Friedrichs: Given a appropriately large receiver pressure pr, if the upstream flow is still supersonic behind the throat of the nozzle, then at a certain place in the diverging part of the nozzle a shock front intervenes and the gas is compressed and slowed down to subsonic speed. The position and the strength of the shock front are automatically adjusted so that the end pressure at the exit becomes pr. We investigate this problem for the full Euler equations, the stability of the transonic shock is proved when the upstream supersonic flow is a small steady perturbation of the uniform supersonic flow and the corresponding pressure at the exit has a small perturbation. / Duan, Ben. / Adviser: Zhouping Xin. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 73-01, Section: B, page: . / Thesis (Ph.D.)--Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2010. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 125-137). / Electronic reproduction.
