1. Determine the speed of sound in air at (a) 300 K and
(b) 1000 K. Also determine the Mach number of an aircraft moving in air at a velocity of 240 m/s for both cases.
2. Calculate the critical temperature, pressure, and density
of (a) air at 200 kPa, 100°C, and 250 m/s, and (b) helium at 200 kPa, 40°C, and 300 m/s.
3. Air at 200 kPa, 100°C, and Mach number Ma = 0.8
flows through a duct. Calculate the velocity and the stagnation pressure, temperature, and density of the air.
4. Nitrogen enters a converging–diverging nozzle at
700 kPa and 400 K with a negligible velocity. Determine the critical velocity, pressure, temperature, and density in the nozzle
5. Nitrogen enters a converging–diverging nozzle, shown in Fig.
below , at 1.1 MPa and 800 K with a negligible velocity. The flow is steady, one-dimensional, and isentropic with k = 1.4. For an exit Mach number of Ma = 2 and a throat area of 20 cm2, determine (a) the throat conditions, (b) the exit plane conditions, including the exit area, and (c) the mass flow rate through the nozzle.
