Summary
The two dimensional structure of condensation induced shock wave in condensing nozzle flows is investigated numerically and experimentally. By means of the dimensional analysis method, two similarity laws of the onset Mach number and structure of condensation shock are obtained for a same parameter, which is the compromise of condensation strength and the energy consumed before condensation. The similarity law of onset Mach number agrees well with the experimental results from other authors.
