Numerical study on the influence of equation of state on non-equilibrium condensation of CO2 in the Laval nozzle

Key Points

• Non-equilibrium condensation of CO2 is significantly influenced by the equation of state used in the simulation.
• Using different equations of state can lead to variations in condensation rates and overall efficiency during flow.
• The analysis employs numerical simulations to evaluate compressible flow in Laval nozzles and assess condensation mechanisms.
• Understanding these thermodynamic properties is crucial for optimizing CO2 management in industrial applications.
