A new calibration tunnel intended for pressure probe calibration is being designed at the Aerodynamic Laboratory of the Institute of Thermomechanics of the Czech Academy of Sciences (IT CAS). A critical part of the design is the converging nozzle since it can substantially affect the resulting flow field in the test section. Three types of nozzles were chosen for the CFD investigation: two-sine, Vitoshinski, and Vagt. For each type of nozzle, two configurations were considered: long (645 mm) and short (353mm). Flow of the viscous, compressible fluid through all the variants was simulated using Ansys CFX commercial software. Results proved the Vagt nozzle to have the most uniform velocity profile and zero curvature at its end making it the most suitable for the intended use.
