Abstract
In the present study, a computational fluid dynamics work was performed to investigate the effects of initial degree of supersaturation at reservoir condition on under-expanded supersonic jet structures, such as Mach disk location and diameter, barrel shock wave and jet boundary locations. The axisymmetric nozzle geometry investigated was a contoured converging nozzle with long straight part. As a result, it was found that the characteristics of flow with occurrence of non-equilibrium condensation in the jet were different from those without condensation.
