| Exit velocity | Electrical Engineering | A moderate outlet velocity would involve only a small loss, since the actual energy loss varies as the square of the leaving velocity. But where a relatively large leaving velocity is inevitable, the corresponding leaving loss may reach a large value. In actual de Laval turbines, the "leaving velocity" may amount to about 33 per cent of the nozzle outlet velocity. Source: European Union. (references) | |
