Q
Why are convergent-divergent nozzles used in high-pressure turbine applications?
A
They are easy to manufacture.
B
They are less susceptible to steam erosion than other nozzle types due to their shape.
C
They produce a larger pressure drop and therefore are more efficient than other nozzle types.
D
They direct the steam flow more efficiently than other nozzle types.
