A Nozzle device is used to convert the | Mechanical Engineering Objective
A. Total energy to pressure
B. Total energy to velocity
C. Kinetic energy to mechanical energy
D. Potential energy to kinetic energy
Answer:B
A Nozzle device is used to convert the | Mechanical Engineering Objective
A. Total energy to pressure B. Total energy to velocity C. Kinetic energy to mechanical energy D. Potential energy to kinetic energy
Explanation: In nozzle area decreases, velocity increases and pressure decreases. Nozzle converts pressure energy into kinetic energy. Since the objective of the device is to increase the flow velocity.
