Question
Argon gas flows through a well-insulated nozzle at steady state. The temperature and velocity at the inlet are 570°R and 150 ft/s,
respectively. At the exit, the temperature is 460°R and the pressure is 40 lb/in². The area of the exit is 0.0085 ft². Use the ideal gas
model with k = 1.67, and neglect potential energy effects.
Determine the velocity at the exit, in ft/s, and the mass flow rate, in lb/s.
