Q6 (a) Explain briefly the different between incompressible and compressible fluid flow (5 marks) (6) Air at pressure and temperature of 200 kPa, 373.2 K flows through a duct at Mach Number of 0.8. The gas constant and specific heat ratio of air are 0.287 kJ/kg k, 1.4 respectively. Determine, (1) air velocity: (11) stagnation pressure: (111) stagnation temperature and (iv) stagnation density (8 marks) Nitrogen enters a converging diverging nozzle from a reservoir at a pressure of 700 kPa...
Air at stagnation pressure of 700 kPa and temperature of 530 K enters a isentropic converging-diverging nozzle. The throat area of the nozzle is 5 cm2, the exit area is 12.5 cm2. The back pressure is 350 kPa and a normal shock occurs within a diverging section. Determine (a) exit Mach number, (b) change in stagnation pressure, (c) upstream and downstream Mach number of shock (d) cross sectional area where shock occurs (e) back pressure if the flow were isentropic...
2. Find the Mach number and air speed corresponding of 500 kPa(abs) in an air flow with a (static) pressure of 100 kPa and measured (stagnation) temperature of 500 K. DISCUSSION: Suppose that, instead of assuming that a normal shock occurs upstream of the Pitot tube, it is assumed that the flow upstream is ISENTROPIC... what would the estimated flow speed be in that case? (NOTE: A normal shock is always observed to form upstream of bluff bodies such as...
Air flows through a converging-diverging nozzle/diffuser. Assuming isentropic flow, air as an ideal gas, and constant specific heats determine the state at several locations the system.

This problem illustrates the effects of normal shock wave on an isentropic flow through a converging-diverging nozzle. Air flows through an isentropic converging-diverging nozzle The air stagnation pressure and temperature are 7.0 x10 N/m2 and 500 K, respectively The diverging portion of the nozzle has an area ratio of AJA 13.0. A normal shock wave stands in the diverging section where the Mach number is 4.0. Analyze the case to caleulate the Mach number and the static temperature and pressure...
