contraction in NOZZLE working principle....
It is known that when the water flow from one end of the nozzle to other the pressure remains unchanged and the velocity gets changed. "pressure is inversely proportional to velocity ". But according to the formula "P=F/A", if the area gets decreased the pressure gets increased. How the both pressure and velocity increasing simultaneously.....😕

more pressure would mean more force according to the equn u have given. More force naturally would lead to more speed !😉ppkmechIt is known that when the water flow from one end of the nozzle to other the pressure remains unchanged and the velocity gets changed.

Thank you for your response..........Amith Guptamore pressure would mean more force according to the equn u have given. More force naturally would lead to more speed !😉
But it is known that "pressure is inversely proportional to velocity"... Then how it is possible.. is it velocity or speed (in your quote) -
jigartankThe main function of the nozzle is to increase the velocity of the flowing medium (i.e gas or liquid)through it. This is done at the expense of the pressure and internal energy. The end speed of the medium will depend on the final pressure ratio and the shape of the nozzle. But in the nozzle at each section the pressure will vary. The tendency of the flow is always from the higher pressure to the lower pressure side.
With out the pressure difference the flow can not be there. -

think logically..that would be simple.. give some rest to the equn😁ppkmechThank you for your response..........

zaveriThe lesser the area of cross-section of flow, the lesser would be the pressure applied by the flowing fluid.
now in a nozzle the exit diameter is lesser, than the inlet diameter. doesn't it all add up now ? -

The same volume/time flows through the entire length. If the diameter decreases, the velocity has to increase to keep the flow constant.
The first law of thermodynamics is that energy must be conserved. Since the velocity head increased, the pressure head must decrease to keep the total energy constant.
