Abstract

Compressible flows between two parallel disks are frequently encountered in fluid power components such as pneumatic statistical bearings, pneumatic nozzle-flapper valves and pneumatic valves. Such flows are difficult to solve theoretically because both viscous and compressible effects exist. In the present study, a theory is developed to predict the flow characteristics, assuming that the flow is one dimensional and steady. Experiments are performed, and their results agree fairly well with theoretical results.
