Viscous swirling flow through transonic converging-diverging nozzles (with and without centerbodies) is examined numerically. An implicit technique is used to solve the axisymmetric Thin Layer Naiver-Stokes equations. The effect of swirl and viscosity on low Reynolds number flows is shown by examining integral parameters and flowfield details.
