Students have asked these similar questions
Propane and methane are commonly used for heating in winter, and the leakage of these fuels,
even for short periods, poses a fire danger for residential application. Which gas leakage do you
think poses a greater risk for fire? State the reason.
Reconsider Prob Using appropriate software, investigate the effect of the exit pressure of steam on the exit temperature after throttling. Let the exit pressure vary from 6 to 1 MPa. Plot the exit temperature of steam against the exit pressure, and discuss the results.
How does the parameter Ma* differ from the Mach number Ma?
