Chapter 8, Problem 8.2P

The temperature in the reservoir of a supersonic wind tunnel is 519  ° R . In the test section, the flow velocity is 1385 ft/s. Calculate the test-section Mach number. Assume the tunnel flow is adiabatic.

In a wind tunnel air enters with a velocity of 200kmph. The static pressure and temperature of the air at the inlet of the tunnel is 110kPa and 27°C respectively. Determine Mach number, stagnation temperature, stagnation pressure and the stagnation density on a test model installed in the wind tunnel. The size of the tunnel is given as 1m x1m square cross-section. Determine the mass flow rate of the air. For air assume R=287J/kgK ; γ=1.4.
A uniform supersonic airstream travelling at a Mach number of 9.0 passes over a concave corner, as shown in Figure 4. An oblique shockwave, which makes an angle of 30° with the flow direction, is attached to the corner under the given conditions. If the pressure and temperature in the uniform flow are 45 kPa and -30 °C respectively, determine the Mach number and deflection angle behind the wave.
Nitrogen at 700 kPa pressure and 300K temperature enters a convergent divergent nozzle at negligible speed and passes through a normal shock wave at the Mach number of 3. Calculate the pressure, temperature, velocity, Mach number and stop pressure in the flow behind the shock wave. Compare the values ​​you find with the values ​​found with the air passing through the normal shockwave under the same conditions.
