Beyond the Nozzle: The Dramatic Journey of Stagnation Pressure
Stagnation pressure, also known as total pressure or pitot pressure, is a concept in fluid mechanics and thermodynamics. It is a measure of the total energy contained in a fluid stream, accounting for both the static pressure and the kinetic energy of the fluid.
When a fluid (liquid or gas) flows, it possesses both static pressure (pressure exerted by the fluid molecules in random motion) and dynamic pressure (pressure due to the fluid's motion). Stagnation pressure is the sum of these two
