Abstract To get better industrial equipment, one must understand the different phenomena within a machine. Non-equilibrium condensation is of natural happening in process, thereby affecting flow behavior; concept vital understanding and optimizing machinery applied industries. The present investigation focuses on surface heating method, more precisely using constant heat flux context NEC inside supersonic nozzle. results indicate that method can delay droplet nucleation growth However, this should be considered to limit due raise temperature at nozzle wall. rise has reduced Liquid Mass Fraction (LMF) LMF outlet center line determined 0.075, 0.072, 0.068 for adiabatic condition, 200 kW/m 2 flux, 400 respectively. also influences pattern. With an increase shock wave shifted downstream, decreasing its intensity.
