A comparison between theoretical and experimental results ismade in order to estimate the results of a de Laval nozzle manufactured in our laboratory, used to produce a N2 gas target. The comparison between the results shows that Computational Fluid Dynamicssimulations are able todescribe the phenomena of the supersonic gas jet.openAccessinterferometryaccelerationwakefield acceleratorscomputer calculationsfluid mechanicsnozzlessupersonic flowTexto completo de evento10.1109/SBFOTONIOPC50774.2021.94619360000-0003-0092-93570000-0001-7762-8961https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0092-9357https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7762-8961
