Exact compressible one-dimensional nozzle flow solutions at steady state are determined in various limit situations of two-phase liquid-gas mixtures. First, the exact solution for a pure liquid nozzle flow is determined in the context of fluids governed by the compressible Euler equations and the %26apos;stiffened gas%26apos; equation of state. It is an extension of the well-known ideal-gas steady nozzle flow solution. Various two-phase flow models are then addressed, all corresponding to limit situations of partial equilibrium among the phases. The first limit situation corresponds to the two-phase flow model of Kapila et al. (Phys. Fluids, vol. 13, 2001, pp. 3002-3024), where both phases evolve in mechanical equilibrium only. This model contains two entropies, two temperatures and non-conventional shock relations. The second one corresponds to a two-phase model where the phases evolve in both mechanical and thermal equilibrium. The last one corresponds to a model describing a liquid-vapour mixture in thermodynamic equilibrium. They all correspond to two-phase mixtures where the various relaxation effects are either stiff or absent. In all instances, the various flow regimes (subsonic, subsonic-supersonic, and supersonic with shock) are unambiguously determined, as well as various nozzle solution profiles.
