Closed Book & Note
1. Define quasi 1-D flow.

2. Draw variations of A/A* vs P/P0 and A/A* Vs M and show the subsonic and supersonic portions.

3. Show that in a supersonic tunnel A t2 > At1 .

4. The meaning of ‘chocked flow is that.—

5. Figure below is a representation of a Schlieren photo showing a converging—diverging nozzle in operation.

Indicate whether the nozzles are over expanded or under expanded and pressures in all regions are equal to, greater
than, or less than the receiver pressure. Also indicate if the waves A-F are expansion or compression ones. Draw
pressure vs x and show the wave pattern. Explain in detail.

6. Which one of the following statement is true

(a) In supersonic flow disturbance may propagate in the direction of velocity only.
(6) In supersonic flow disturbance may propagate in the direction opposite to velocity only.
(c) In supersonic flow disturbance may propagate in the direction perpendicular to the direction of flow only.
(d) In supersonic (low disturbance may propagate in all the directions.

7. In a hodograph plane when u2 = a1 then

(a) flow is with shock. (b) Flow is without shock. (c) Shock change. to strong Mach wave. (d) Angle αm1 becomes
equal to 1/M1

8. When Prandtl.Meyer angle θ = θmax flow after the shock becomes—

(a) supersonic (b) subsonic (c) sonic (d) transonic

9. When a supersonic flow undergoes a change of direction while flowing through a concave boundary. Then (a) A
number of weak oblique chocks are formed. (b) A number of strong oblique shocks are formed. (c) The flow is
expanded through the chock waves. (d) The flow is reflected through the shock waves.

10. For the given nozzle, draw variations of M vs x, P/P0 vs x, T/T0 vs x, Pe/P0 vs Pb/P0, and m. vs P/P0 for all stages
discussed in the class.

1. A turbojet engine is mounted on a static test on a thrust stand. Air is brought into the engine through a duct mounted
perpendicular to the exit of the engine. The average velocity of the air introduced by the engine is 250 m/sec., the average
velocity of the gas discharge by the propulsive nozzle is 590 m/sec, the mass flow rate is 22 kg/sec, and the pressure in the exit
plane of the propulsive nozzle is atmospheric. Calculate the axial force transmitted from the engine to the thrust stand.

2. Air enters a C-DS nozzle at 20*105 N/m2 and 40oC. The reservoir pressure is 2*105 N/m2 and the nozzle throat is 10 cm2.
a) What should the exit area be for the design conditions above (i.e. to operate at third critical?)
b) With the nozzle area fixed at the value determined in part (a) and the inlet pressure held at 20*105N/m2, what reservoir
pressure would cause a shock to stand at the exit?
c) What reservoir pressure would place the shock at the throat?

3. A C-D nozzle has an exit Mach No. of 1.8 when operating isentropically. If the back pressure is increased such that
Pback/P01=0.8 a shock appears in the divergent portion. What is Aexit/Ashock?

4. Two types of intake duct are shown. In both cases the approach air stream static conditions are 0.7 bar, 7°C and
the flow Mach number 1.90. The minimum area = 1.5 m2 in each intake. Calculate the mass flow rate and recovery
factor in each intake. [The recovery factor is the ratio of the final to approach stream stagnation pressure.]
