Studies on wall pressure of sonic flow through the converging nozzles for different area ratios

The experimental studies were conducted to ascertain the effectiveness of micro jets to control the base pressure in suddenly expanded axi-symmetric ducts. However, in this paper our main aim was to study the influence of the micro jets on the development of the flow field in the duct wall as well a...
