| Description | The evolution of an overshoot velocity distribution was studied in a plane two dimensional diffuser as a function of diffuser divergence angle. The diffuser performance for velocity overshoot was compared to that for a fully developed inlet velocity profile. Results indicate that the ratio of peak-to-center line velocity increases along the diffuser for a diffuser half angle greater than some critical value. It was also found that irrespective of the accompanying inlet temperature distribution, the wall shear stress and the wall heat flux is substantially larger when the inlet velocity profile has an overshoot than that for a fully developed inlet velocity profile. |
