Textbook Question
Chapter 12, Problem 88P

In compressible flow, velocity measurements with a Pitot probe can be grossly in error if relations developed for incompressible flow are used. Therefore, it is essential that compressible flow relations be used when evaluating flow velocity from Pitot probe measurements. Consider supersonic flow of air through a channel. A probe inserted into the flow causes a shock wave to occur upstream of the probe, and it measures the stagnation pressure and temperature to be 620 kPa and 340 K, respectively. If the static pressure upstream is 110 kPa, determine the flow velocity.
Can the Mach number of a fluid be greater than 1 after a normal shock wave? Explain.
The Mach number behind a normal shock wave is 0.4752. What is the Mach number in front of the wave? What are the density, pressure, and temperature ratios across the shock?
