Compressible Flow Air as an ideal gas with k = 1.4 enters a converging-diverging channel at a Mach number of 1.6. A normal shock stands at the inlet to the channel. Downstream of the shock the flow is isentropic; the Mach number is unity at the throat; and the air exits at 20 lbf/in.2, 700°R, with negligible velocity. If the mass flow rate is 45 lb/s, determine the inlet and throat areas, in ft2.
