ME8595 - Thermal Engineering-II ME8595 - Thermal Engineering-II

This document contains exam questions about thermal engineering and steam nozzles. It asks students to define critical velocity and metastable flow. It also asks students to explain the phenomenon of super saturated expansion in steam nozzles and the conditions that produce super saturation. Additional questions calculate steam velocities and discharge rates through convergent-divergent nozzles under various pressure and heat loss conditions. The document concludes with a question requiring a description and labeled diagram of the workings of a Cochran boiler and the functions of its components.
