2.1 In the reservoir, the air is at stagnation state. So, the entropy relation
would be ! " ! "

= 198.933 J/(kg K)

Note: It should be noted that, for entropy only subscripts 2 and 1 are used;
since entropy is not defined like static or stagnation entropy.

2.2 Let the initial state be denoted by subscript 1 and expanded state by sub-
script 2.

(a) Since the cylinder is insulated, preventing any heat transfer what-so-ever,
the process is adiabatic. The governing equation for this process is given by

p1 Vγ1 = p2 Vγ2 = constant (1)

Also, from ideal gas state equation

From Eqs. (1) and (2), we get

Therefore,
#
T2 = T1 10(γ−1) = 557.35 K

∆T = − 842.65 K

(b) $ $ $ $
Work = pdv = dh − du − vdp (3)

Also,
pv γ = constant from equation (1)
Differentiating equation (1), we have,

pγv γ−1 dv + v γ dp = 0

Dividing throughout by v γ−1 and integrating, we get


$ $
pγdv + vdp = 0
$
vdp = −γw (4)

Substituting equation (4) in equation (3) and simplifying, we get

(1 − γ) w = R∆T

R∆T 287 × (−842.65)


w = =
1−γ (−0.4)

= 6.04 × 105 J/kg

Note: Since the process undergone is expansion from a high pressure, the work
removed is positive, i.e, work is done by the gas.

(c) Also, from equation (1)

The change in the temperature is

∆T = T2 − T1 = 483.868 − 290

= 193.868 K

(b) By first law of thermodynamics, we have

du + d(pe) + d(ke) = dq + dw
6 Basic Equations of Compressible Flow

Here, velocity changes are neglected. Therefore,


d(ke) = 0
Also, assuming
d(pe) = 0
The first law of thermodynamics reduces to
du = dq + dw
But the process is isentropic, thus dq = 0. Therefore,
du = dw = cv ∆T = 717.5 × 193.868

= 1.39 × 105 J/kg

(c) The work done is negative, i.e. work is done on the gas. It has been
computed in (b) above.

2.5 Work done by the weight on the piston goes towards increasing the internal
energy of the gas. From the first law of thermodynamics
E2 − E 1 = Q + W
where, E, Q, and W are respectively the internal energy, heat transfered, and
work done. Since no heat is transfered, Q = 0. Therefore,
$
E2 − E1 = W = F . ds

where, F is force and ds is distance. At the new equilibrium position, the force
acting on the piston face is F = p2 Ap , Ap is the area of the piston face. The
distance traveled by the piston is ds = (V1 − V2 )/Ap , V1 and V2 are the initial
and final volumes. Thus we have,
E2 − E1 = p2 . Ap (V1 − V2 )/Ap

= −p2 (V2 − V1 )
For unit mass,
e2 − e1 = −p2 (V2 − V1 )
For calorically perfect gas, e = cv T . Therefore

Note: Work has been done by the weight which is equal to p2 Ap on the gas.
The weight has moved by a distance of ds. Therefore, ∆E = W . ds = p2 Ap . ds.

since 1 atm = 101325 Pa.

2.8 The compression process is given as isentropic. Let subscripts 1 and 2 refer

2.12 For an ideal gas, the speed of sound a may be expressed as


/
a = γRT
10 Basic Equations of Compressible Flow

where γ is the ratio of specific heats and R is the gas constant. For the given
gas,

R = Ru /M = 8314/29 = 286.7 J/(kg K)

Therefore,

Therefore,

cp = (1.5/0.5) × 286.7

= 860.1 J/(kg K)

cv = 286.7/0.5

= 573.4 J/(kg K)

Note: The ratio of specific heats γ = cp /cv . For the present case γ = 1.5 =
860.1/573.4 is correct. This way the answer obtained for cp and cv may be
checked.

2.13 At the nozzle exit, V = 390 m/s and T = 28 + 273.15 = 301.15 K. The
corresponding speed of sound is

T0 = 1.25 × 301.15 = 376.44 K

For the flow, the stagnation temperature is T0 = 376.44 K.

The static temperature T = 92.5◦ C = 92.5 + 273.15 = 365.65 K

2.15 The given process is a polytropic process with index n = 1.32. Since air
is given as an ideal gas with constant specific heats, we have from isentropic
relations the change of entropy as

Note: Since the entropy of the gas decreases for this internally reversible process,
heat must be removed from the gas. This is why the cylinder used for such a
compression process is usually water jacketed. Also, we know that the entropy of
the system and surrounding cannot decrease. But in this problem, the entropy
decreases. It should be noted that, what decreases is entropy of the system
alone and not the combined entropy of the system and surrounding.

2.16 For oxygen, molecular weight M = 32. The gas constant R = 8314/32 =

The increase in enthalpy is

%h = cp (T2 − T1 ) = 909.3 (125 − 25)

2.17 Let the subscripts 1 and 2 refer to the inlet and exit states. At state 1, p1 =
100 kPa,
ρ1 = 1.175 kg/m3 . Therefore,

T1 = = = 296.5 K

At state 2, p2 = 500 kPa, ρ2 = 5.875 kg/m3 . Therefore,

Assuming air to be a perfect gas, the enthalpy difference is given by

h2 − h1 = cp (T2 − T1 ) = cp (296.5 − 296.5)

= 0

2.18 The entropy change is given by

δq
ds =
T
where δq is the reversible heat addition per unit mass.
For an ideal gas
δq = dh − vdp
where dh is the enthalpy change and dh = cp dT

δq = cp dT − vdp

Solving this, we get T2 = 631.54 K. Therefore, the temperature increase becomes

If the nozzle is choked, then

p2 = p∗ = 0.528 × 6.895 × 105

since, p2 > patm , the flow is choked. Hence, the pressure in the exit plane is

flow will not be choked. Further, subsonic flow is always correctly expanded,

where ρ∗ and V ∗ are the density and velocity at M = 1. From isentropic table,

This is well below the critical pressure ratio of 0.528. Therefore, the flow is a

The area ratio Ae /Ath = 13.5/8 = 1.6875.

Me = 2.0

4.55 Given, p0 = pa = 101325 Pa and T0 = 288.15 K. For the flow to choke,


pb /p0 ≤ 0.528. Therefore, the pressure in the tank pb has to be

For correct expansion, pe = pb . Therefore,

pb = 0.22510 × p0 = 0.22501 × 10 × 101325 Pa

since 1 atm = 101325 Pa.

Thus, pb = 228 kPa

(b) The flow will remain supersonic at the exit for all back pressures below
228 kPa

(c) For choking, M = 1 at the throat. After choking the flow can expand as a
subsonic flow at the divergent portion of the nozzle. From isentropic table, for
Ae /A∗ = 1.275, we have

Me = 0.54 p/p0 = 0.82 (approx)

5.10 Given that, the stagnation pressure and temperature are


p0 = 1 atm = 101325 Pa, T0 = 15◦ C = 288.15 K
From isentropic table, for M = 3.0, we have
p

p0
Therefore, the static pressure at the test-section is
p = 0.02722 p0

= 0.02722 × 101325

The pitot pressure measured by a pitot tube placed in the test-section is the
pressure behind a normal shock.
From normal shock table, for M = 3.0, we have
p02

p01
Thus, the pressure that a pitot tube at the test-section will measure is
p02 = 0.3283 p01

p2 T2 ρ2 p02

Therefore,

M2 = 0.51299

p2 = (7.125)(1) = 7.125 atm

ρ2 = (3.3333)(1.225) = 4.083 kg/m3

p02 = (8.5261)(1) = 8.5261 atm

T2 = (2.1375)(T1 )

From state equation, we have


p1 101325
T1 = =

Therefore,

T2 = (2.1375)(288.2) = 616.03 K

R = 8314/28.02 = 297 J/(kg K) and cp = γ−1 R = 1.4
0.4 × 297 = 1039.5 J/(kg

The speed of sound upstream of the shock is


/ √
a = γ R T = 1.4 × 297 × 303

= 354.95 m/s

Therefore, the upstream Mach number M1 is

V1 923
M1 = =

= 2.6

Also, since the flow process across a normal shock is adiabatic, T01 = T02 . Now,
from normal shock table, for M1 = 2.6, we have

p2 T2

Therefore,

V2 = M2 a2 = 0.504 × 531.03

5.13 For blunt nosed model at Mach 3, there will a detached bow-shock standing
in front of the nose. This shock can be approximated to a normal shock at the
nose of the model around the stagnation point. Therefore, pressure at the
stagnation point is the total pressure behind the normal shock.
From normal shock table, for M1 = 3, we have
p02
= 0.32834
p01

Thus,

p02 = 0.32834 p01 = 0.32834 × 10

= 3.2834 atm

= 332.69 kPa

The flow process across the shock is adiabatic. Hence, T02 = T01 . Therefore,

T02 = 315 K

After the normal shock, the flow decelerates isentropically to stagnation condi-
tion at the nose. Hence, the stagnation density ρ02 can be expressed as
p02 332690
ρ02 = =

The static pressure in the flow just downstream of the shock is,

If a normal shock has to be positioned at the nozzle exit, the back pressure to
which the nozzle discharges has to be equal to the total pressure downstream
of the shock. The total pressure downstream of the shock is

p02 = 8.5261 × 1.0 = 8.5261 atm

i.e. the back pressure has to be 863.91 kPa to position a normal shock at the

The back pressure required is p02 , thus,

Downstream of the shock, the flow is isentropic upto the nozzle exit. However,
for this flow the effective throat area is not the same as A∗ , since p02 < p01 .
Let the effective throat area downstream of shock to be A∗2 . From isentropic

The flow velocity is

5.18 Since the Mach number upstream of the shock is 2.32, the area ratio
corresponding to this Mach number will give the area at the shock location.

(a) For M1 = 2.32, from isentropic table,

Thus, area at shock location is A1 = 2.23 × 5 = 11.15 cm2

M1 = =√
a1 1.4 × 287 × 300

= 1.44

From normal shock table for M1 = 1.44, we get


p2 T2 p02
M2 = 0.72345, = 2.2525, = 1.2807, = 0.9476
p1 T1 p01

Thus,

p2 = 2.2525 × 100 = 225.25 kPa


103

T2 = 1.2807 × 300 = 384.21 K


V2 = M2 a2 = 0.72345 × 1.4 × 287 × 384.21

= 284.25 m/s

The entropy increase is

p01
∆s = R ln = 287 ln (1.0552)
p02

= 15.432 J/(kg K)

5.21 The flow velocity at nozzle entrance is low. Therefore, the pressure and
temperature of the flow at the entry can be treated as the stagnation quantities.
Thus,
p01 = 1 MPa, T01 = 300 K
From isentropic table, for M1 = 2, we have
p1 T1
= 0.1278 and = 0.55556
p01 T01
Therefore,

p1 = (0.1278)(1) = 0.1278 MPa

T1 = (0.55556)(300) = 166.67 K

From normal shock table, for M1 = 2, we get


p2 T2 p02
= 4.5, = 1.6875, = 0.72087 and M2 = 0.57735
p1 T1 p01
Thus,

p2 = 4.5 × 0.1278 = 0.5751 MPa

T2 = 1.6875 × 166.67 = 281.3 K

p02 = 0.72087 × 1 = 0.72087 MPa

104 Normal Shock Waves

V2 = M2 a2 = 0.57735 × 336.19

= 194.1 m/s

5.22 Given, p0 = 101 kPa and T0 = 30 + 273.15 K. A normal shock at the


nozzle exit implies that the entire nozzle flow is isentropic and also the flow is
choked at the throat.

The area ratio is


Ae 0.0724

= = 2.896
A 0.025
Ae
From isentropic table, for A∗ = 2.896, we have

p1 T1
M1 = 2.6, = 0.050115, = 0.42517
p0 T0

This is the Mach number upstream of the shock. Thus,

M1 = 2.6

p1 = 0.050115 × 101 = 5.06 kPa

T1 = 0.42517 × 303.15 = 128.9 K

p01 = 101 kPa

Let the conditions downstream of the shock be referred to by subscript 2. From


normal shock table, for M1 = 2.6, we get

M2 = 0.504

p2 T2 p02
= 7.72, = 2.2383, = 0.46012
p1 T1 p01

p2 = 39.06 kPa

T2 = 288.5 K

p02 = 46.47 kPa


105

5.23 Given, p0 = 200 kPa and T0 = 350 K. Let subscripts 1 2 and 3 refer
to locations upstream and downstream of the shock wave and the nozzle exit,
respectively.
Ath = A∗1 = 0.2 m2
At the shock location, A1 = 0.6 m2 , thus,
A1 0.6
∗ = = 3.0
A1 0.2

A1
From isentropic table, for = 3.0, we get
A∗1
p1
M1 = 2.64, = 0.04711
p01
Up to the shock the flow in the nozzle is isentropic and therefore, p01 = p0 .
Thus,

p01 = 200 kPa

p1 = 200 × 103 × 0.04711

= 9.422 kPa

where, p1 and p01 are the static and total pressures, respectively, ahead of the
shock. Let subscript 2 refer to condition behind the shock.

Now, from normal shock table, for M1 = 2.64, we have


p2 p02
M2 = 0.50, = 7.9645, = 0.44522
p1 p01
Thus,

p2 = 7.9645 × 9.422

= 75.04 kPa

p02 = 0.44522 × 200

= 89.04 kPa

Also, from normal shock theory we have (Section 4.6)

p01 A2 ∗
= = 2.25
p02 A1 ∗
106 Normal Shock Waves

Thus,
A∗2 = 2.25 × 0.20 = 0.45 m2
A∗2 may also be obtained from M2 . From isentropic table, for M2 = 0.5,
A2
= 1.34
A∗2
Thus,
0.6
A2 ∗ = = 0.448 m2
1.34
This A∗2 is the equivalent throat area for the flow downstream of the shock.
Therefore, at the nozzle exit,
A3 0.8
∗ = = 1.786
A3 0.448
A3
Now, from isentropic table, for = 1.786,
A∗3
p3 T3
M3 = 0.35, = 0.91877, = 0.97609
p03 T03
Here, p03 = p02 and T03 = T02 = T0 . Thus,

p3 = 0.91877 × 89.04 = 81.81 kPa

p03 = 89.04 kPa

T3 = 0.97609 × 350 = 341.63 K

For area ratio A3 /A∗3 the subsonic solution from the isentropic table was used
since after a normal shock the flow becomes subsonic and this flow is further
decelerated in the divergent portion of the duct.

5.24 Given, p01 = 5 atm and p02 = 3.6 atm. Therefore,


p02 3.6
= = 0.72
p01 5
p02
Assuming γ = 1.4, from normal shock table, for = 0.72, we have
p01
p2
M1 = 2.0, = 4.5
p1
Now, from isentropic table, for M1 = 2.0, we get
p1
= 0.1278
p01
107

Hence, the pressure just behind the normal shock at the nozzle exit is
p2 = 4.5 p1 = 4.5 × 0.1278 × 5

= 2.8755 atm

5.25 The pitot tube will read the actual total pressure in a subsonic stream.
But in a supersonic flow, the pressure measured by a pitot probe is the total
pressure downstream of a detached shock which stands at the nose of the pitot
tube. Therefore, it is essential to find out whether the flow is subsonic or su-
personic.
It can be easily seen from the isentropic relations that for M = 1, the pressure
p 0.95
ratio pp0 = 0.528. Hence, p0 = = = 1.8 atm.
0.528 0.528
Thus, when p0 < 1.8 atm, the flow is subsonic, and when p0 > 1.8 atm, the flow
is supersonic.

(i) p0 = 1.1 atm. The flow is subsonic and hence the pitot tube is measuring
the actual total pressure of the flow.
p 0.95
= = 0.8636
p0 1.1
p
From isentropic table, for = 0.8636, we get
p0

M = 0.465

(ii) p0 = 2.5 atm. The flow is supersonic and the pitot tube measures p02
behind a normal (detached) shock.
p02 2.5
= = 2.63
p1 0.95
p02
From normal shock table, for = 2.63, we get
p1

M = 1.275

(iii) p0 = 10 atm. The flow is supersonic.


p02 10

From normal shock table, for = 10.526, we have
p1

M = 2.79
108 Normal Shock Waves

5.26 The shock will be only at the divergent portion of the nozzle, since only
after the throat the flow becomes supersonic.
The Mach number M1 just upstream of the shock will be given by the area ratio
Ashock
.
Ath
Ashock 2000
= =2
Ath 1000
From isentropic table, for area ratio 2, we have
p1
M1 = 2.2 , = 0.093522
p01
Up to the shock, the stagnation pressure does not change and therefore,

p01 = 200 kPa

p1 = 200 × 0.093522 = 18.7 kPa

Now, from normal shock table, for M1 = 2.2, we get


p2 p02
M2 = 0.55, = 5.48, = 0.62814
p1 p01
where subscript 2 refer to condition just downstream of the shock. Therefore,

p2 = 5.48 × 18.7 = 102.48 kPa

p02 = 0.62814 × 200 = 125.63 kPa

For M2 = 0.55, from isentropic table, we get


A2
= 1.255
Ath2
where Ath2 is the throat area required for the flow downstream of the shock to
choke.
A2
Ath2 =
1.255
2
But A2 = A1 = Ashock = 2000mm , therefore,
2000
Ath2 = = 1593.63 mm2
1.255
Thus,
Ae 3000
= = 1.8825
Ath2 1593.63
For this area ratio, from isentropic table (subsonic part), we get

Me = 0.325

Therefore,
p02 1 23.5

pe
p02 125.63
pe = =

The pressure loss occurs only across the shock and the loss of pressure ∆p0 is

∆p0 = p01 − p02 = (200 − 125.63)

= 74.37 kPa

5.27 Let the subscripts i, 1, 2 and e refer to the inlet, just upstream and just
downstream, and the nozzle exit, respectively. It can be shown for this flow
that,
p01 A∗1 = p02 A∗2 (1)
For Mi = 2.0, from isentropic table, we get
Ai

A∗i

Therefore,
A1 A1 Ai

Ai A∗i

= 2 × 1.6875 = 3.375

For this area ratio, from isentropic table, we get

M1 = 2.76

For M1 = 2.76, from normal shock table, we have


p02

p01

Using this in Eq. (1), we get

For this area ratio, from isentropic table (subsonic solution), we get

Me = 0.22

The exit pressure pe may be expressed as


pe p02 p01
pe = pi
p02 p01 pi
pe p02 p0i

p02 p01 pi
1
= 0.96684 × 0.40283 × × 80
0.1278

= 243.8 kPa

Thus, the back pressure required is 243.8 kPa.

5.28 When a pitot tube is placed in a supersonic stream, there will be a de-
tached shock standing at its nose. At the nose where the pressure tap is located,
the shock may be treated as a normal shock and hence what the pitot tube mea-
sures is the pitot pressure p02 downstream of the shock.

The wall pressure measured by a pressure tap may be treated as the actual
static pressure of the stream. Thus we may take the static pressure upstream
of the shock as p1 = 112 kPa. Thus,
p02 2895

From normal shock table, for = 25.848, we get

Thus,

V1 = M1 a1 = 895.1 m/s

5.29 At 10,000 m altitude, from standard atmospheric table, we have

For,

M = 2.4, = = 2.152
T 0.46468
Thus,

For the present geometry of fixed angle diffuser, the optimum condition for
steady state operation is a normal shock at the diffuser throat. The diffuser
throat area is

A∗ = A
A
From normal shock table, for M1 = 2.4, M2 = 0.52.
From isentropic table, for M2 = 0.52, we have

A2

A∗2

Here A∗2 is the area of the second throat and A is the area of test-section.
A2
Therefore, looking in to the corresponding supersonic Mach number for ∗ =

1.3, we get
M = 1.66
112 Normal Shock Waves

This is the Mach number just upstream of the second throat with a shock. From
normal shock table, for M1 = 1.66, we have
p02

p01
This pressure loss must be compensated by the compressor.

(a) The power required for the compressor is given by


Power = h0 − hi = Cp (T0 − Ti )
where the subscripts 0 and i refer to outlet and inlet conditions. For an isentropic

Thus, the power input required for mbox mass of air becomes

The total power required for the compressor is

Power =

This is the running power required for the compressor.

(b) During start-up, M1 = 2.4 in the test-section. The corresponding total


pressure ratio across the normal shock is
p02

p01
The isentropic work required for the compressor during start-up to drive the

5.30 Let subscripts 1 and 2 refer to conditions just upstream and downstream
of the normal shock. The Mach number just upstream of the shock is 1.85.
From isentropic table, for M1 = 1.85, we get
p1 A1
= 0.1612, ∗ = 1.495
p01 A1
p1 = 0.1612 × 400 = 64.48 kPa
A1 = 1.495 × 10 = 14.95 cm2
Now from normal shock table, for M1 = 1.85, we have
p02
M2 = 0.60, = 0.79023
p01
Again from isentropic table, for M1 = 0.6, we get
A2

A∗2

But A2 = A1 = 14.95 cm2 . Therefore,


14.95
A∗2 = = 12.58 cm2
1.1882
We want the Mach number and pressure at a state 3 where A3 = 2 A1 =

Downstream of the shock, A∗2 = A∗3 . Thus,
A3 29.9

A∗3 12.58
From isentropic table, for this area ratio (from subsonic solution),
p3
M3 = 0.25 and = 0.95745
p03
But p03 = p02 = 316.1 kPa. Therefore,

p3 = 0.95745 × 316.1 = 302.65

Note: This problem has been solved using isentropic table and hence the results
obtained are only approximate. For exact results, we have to use the actual

Oblique Shock and

6.1 Given, M1 = 2 and β = 40◦ , therefore, M1n = 2.0 sin 40 = 1.29. From

Therefore, the minimum supply pressure for which a normal shock will appear
at the nozzle exit is
3.6 × 105 Pa
Note: The static pressure after the shock has to be equal to the back pressure,
namely the atmospheric pressure. This is because, subsonic jets are always
correctly expanded. Thus, the total pressure of this subsonic flow is higher than
123

its static pressure. Hence, the flow will move some distance downstream of the
nozzle exit before coming to rest.

6.21 Let subscripts 1 and 2 refer to states upstream and downstream of the
expansion fan. We know that the flow across the Prandtl-Meyer expansion fan
is isentropic. Therefore, p01 = p02 . From isentropic table, for M1 = 2.0, we
have

Again from isentropic table, for = 0.0639, we have

M2 = 2.44, µ2 = 24.19◦ , and ν2 = 37.71◦

Thus, the flow turning angle is

θ = ν2 − ν1 = (37.71 − 26.37) = 11.34◦

For the first Mach line the angle relative to the freestream is µ1 = 30◦ . For
the last Mach line the angle relative to the freestream is

µ2 − θ = 24.19 − 11.33 = 12.86◦

6.23 Assuming air to be a perfect gas, γ = 1.4. From oblique shock table, for

Also, = 1.7953, where p2 is the pressure behind the shock, which is also the

6.29 From oblique shock table, for M1 = 2 and θ = 10◦ , we get

β = 39.3◦

Therefore, the Mach number normal to the shock becomes

M1n = M1 sin β1 = 1.27

From normal shock table, for M1n = 1.27, we get

M2n = 0.80167

Therefore,

For M2 = 1.64 and θ = 10◦ , from oblique shock chart, we get

β3 = 49.5◦

Thus, the angle of the reflected shock relative to the flat wall is

φ = β3 − θ = 49.5 − 10 = 39.5◦

M2n = M2 sin 49.5 = 1.25

From normal shock table, for M2n = 1.25, we have

M3n = 0.81264

Thus,

6.30 For M1 = 2 and θ = 7◦ , from oblique shock table, we get

M2 = 1.75

For M2 = 1.75, from oblique shock table, we have

θmax = 18◦

This is the maximum of θ up to which the second shock will remain attached.

6.31 The given flow is through an oblique shock. Therefore, there are two
solutions possible for the flow. One is called the weak solution, for which the
flow downstream of the shock will continue to be supersonic with a reduces Mach
number. The second is strong solution for which the Mach number downstream
of the shock will be subsonic.

I. Weak solution

Let subscripts 1 and 2 refer to conditions upstream downstream of the shock.


For M1 = 2 and flow turning angle θ = 15◦ , from oblique shock table, we have

β = 45.34 deg and M2 = 1.45

The Mach number normal to the shock M1n = M1 sin β.

M1n = 2 sin 45.34 = 1.42

Now, the shock may be treated as a normal shock with upstream Mach number
1.42.
From normal shock relations, the change in entropy across the shock is given by

∆s = R ln
p02
From normal shock table, for M1n = 1.42, we have

= 1.049
p02
150 Oblique Shock and Expansion Waves

Thus,

%s = 287 ln (1.049)

= 13.73 J/(kg K)

II. Strong solution

For M1 = 2 and flow turning angle θ = 15◦ , from oblique shock table, we have

β = 79.83◦
M2 = 0.64

M1n = 2 sin (79.83◦ ) = 1.97


From normal shock table, for M1n = 1.97, we get
p01
= 1.36
p02
Thus,

%s = 287 ln (1.36)

= 88.25 J/(kg K)

The shock will be attached up to θmax = 22.97◦

6.32 Since the flow is turned at a compression corner, the problem is effec-
tively getting the flow field downstream of a oblique shock. From oblique shock
table(or chart), for M1 = 3.0 and θ = 10◦ , we have

β = 27.38◦

The Mach normal to the shock is

M1n = M1 sin β = 1.38

From normal shock table, for M1n = 1.38, we get


p2 T2 p02
M2n = 0.74829, = 2.0551, = 1.2418, = 0.96304

6.33 Note that for a given Mach number and turning angle, the oblique shock
can have a weak and a strong solutions. Further, the Mach number downstream
of the shock is supersonic for weak solution and subsonic for the strong solution.

Let us solve this problem with oblique shock table as well as with oblique shock
charts.

From oblique shock table, for γ = 1.4 and M1 = 3.0 and θ = 10◦ , we have

For weak solution

β = 27.38256◦ M2 = 2.505 , = 2.0545

For strong solution

β = 86.40836◦ M2 = 0.48924 , = 10.292
p1
From oblique shock chart I, for M1 = 3.0 and θ = 10◦ , we have

β = 27.4◦ as weak solution

β = 86.3◦ as strong solution


Using oblique shock chart II, the pressure ratio across and Mach number down-
stream of the shock are obtained as

For weak solution


p2
M2 = 2.5, = 2.05

For strong solution

M2 = 0.49, = 10.3

From the above solutions the elegance of oblique shock tables is obvious. Fur-
ther, the solutions obtained with oblique shock charts are only approximate
whereas, the oblique shock table gives accurate results.

6.34 (a) From oblique shock table, for M1 = 2.2 and θ = 6◦ , we have

β = 31.98◦

Therefore, the Mach number normal to the shock is

M1n = M1 sin β = 1.16

From normal shock table, for M1n = 1.16, we have


p02
= 0.99605, M2n = 0.86816
p01
Therefore,
M2n
M2 = = 1.98
sin (β − θ)
From normal shock table, for M2n = 1.98, we have
p03
= 0.73021
p02
153

Thus,
p03 p03 p02
=
p02 p02 p01

= (0.73021)(0.99605) = 0.727

Thus,

Pressure loss = (1 − 0.727) × 100%

= 27.3 per cent

(b) From oblique shock table, for M2 = 1.98 and θ = 6◦ ,

β = 35.8◦

Therefore, the Mach number normal to the shock is

M2n = M2 sin β = 1.1582 ≈ 1.16

From normal shock table, for M2n = 1.16, we have


p03
= 0.99605, M3n = 0.86816
p02
Therefore,
M3n
M3 = = 1.7468
sin (β − θ)
From normal shock table, for M3 = 1.75, we have
p04
= 0.83457
p03
Thus,
p04 p04 p03 p02
=
p01 p03 p02 p01

= (0.83457)(0.99605)(0.99605) = 0.8279

Thus,

Pressure loss = (1 − 0.8279) × 100%

= 17.2 per cent

6.35 For M1 = 2.4 and β12 = 30◦ , from oblique shock chart, we have

θ12 = 6.2◦
154 Oblique Shock and Expansion Waves

The Mach number normal to the incident shock is

M1n = M1 sin β12 = 2.4 × sin 30◦ = 1.2

From normal shock table, for M1n = 1.2, we have

M2n = 0.84217

Therefore,

M2n
M2 =
sin (β − θ)
0.84217
=
sin (30 − 6.2)

= 2.09

For M2 = 2.09 and θ23 = 6.2◦ , from oblique shock chart, we have

β23 = 34◦

The Mach number normal to the reflected shock is

M2rn = M2 sin β23 = 2.09 sin 34◦ = 1.17

From normal shock table, for M2rn = 1.17, we get

M3n = 0.86145

M3n
M3 =
sin (β − θ)
0.86145
=
sin (34 − 6.2)

= 1.84

Hence the Mach numbers upstream and downstream of the reflected shock are
2.09 and 1.84, respectively.

6.36 Let the state ahead of and behind the first shock be represented by sub-
scripts 1 and 2, respectively, and those behind the second shock by 2 and 3,
respectively.
Given M1 = 2.3 and θ1 = 8◦ . For this Mach number and turning angle, from
oblique shock table, we get

β1 = 32.42◦ , M2 = 1.99
155

Therefore,

M1n = M1 × sin β

= 2.3 × sin (32.42◦ )

= 1.23

From normal shock table for Mn1 = 1.23,

8.2 For hypersonic flow, M∞ tan (θ + α) ≥ 0.5.

When (θ + α) is small, M∞ (θ + α) ≥ 0.5.

where, θ is the half angle at the vertex of the model and α is the angle of attack.
For hypersonic similarity,

M∞1 (θ1 + α1 ) = M∞2 (θ2 + α2 )


M∞1 = 10

α1 = 3 deg
θ1 = 3 deg
π
M∞1 (θ1 + α1 ) = 10 × (3 + 3) × >1

Hence the flow is hypersonic. When the test Mach number is small, the angle
involved will be large.

(a)

M∞2 = 3.0
θ2 = 12 deg
M∞1 tan (θ1 + α1 ) = 10 tan 6 deg = 1.05
M∞2 tan (θ2 + α2 ) = 3 tan (12 + α2 ) = 1.05
tan (12 + α2 ) = 0.35
12 + α2 = 19.3

Therefore,
α2 = 7.3 deg

(b)

M∞3 = 3.0
θ3 = 3 deg
M∞3 tan (θ3 + α3 ) = 3.0 tan (3 + α3 ) = 1.05
tan (3 + α3 ) = 0.35
3 + α3 = 19.3

Therefore,
α3 = 16.3 deg

8.3 Hypersonic similarity factor K = M θ. In order to apply the results of


model to the missile, K should be same for the model and the missile. That is,

K 1 = K2

that is,

9.1 The linearized perturbation velocity potential equation for two-dimensional


supersonic flow Eq.(9.1) is

where β = M∞ 2 − 1 and φ is the perturbation velocity potential. Equation

(1) may also be written as,

Keeping in mind that (M∞ − 1) > 0 for supersonic flow, it can be visualized
that equation (2) is also of the form of the classical wave equation. Hence, a
solution to equation (2) can be expressed as,
/ /
φ(x, y) = f (x − M∞ 2 − 1y) + g(x + M∞ 2 − 1y) (3)

For the problem under consideration, only left running waves are present and
therefore, /

That is, after initial expansion, the flow direction is 22 deg with respect to nozzle

For M3 = 2.764 and θ = 12 deg, oblique shock chart gives, β = 32 deg, and

Therefore,

Since the tube is perfectly insulated, T01 = T02 , thus,

The initial density is

ρ1 = =

since, 1 atm = 101325 Pa. Thus, the mass flow rate through the tube is

Now, assuming a control volume between the sections 1 and 2, we can write the
force balance equation as

(p1 − p2 ) A + F = ρ1 A1 V1 (V2 − V1 )

where F is the frictional drag and A is the cross-sectional area of the tube.
For M2 = 0.76, from isentropic table, we have

Therefore,

T2 = 0.89644 T02 = 0.89644 × 347.9
