Air at 120°C and 500 kPa absolute is flowing in a pipe at 600 m/s and suddenly undergoes an abrupt change to 249°C and 1246 kPa absolute at a location where the diameter is 10 cm. Calculate the velocity after the sudden change (a shock wave) illustrated in Fig P4.38. Also, calculate the mass flux and the flow rates before and after the abrupt change.

Question
Air at 120°C and 500 kPa absolute is flowing in a
pipe at 600 m/s and suddenly undergoes an abrupt
change to 249°C and 1246 kPa absolute at a location
where the diameter is 10 cm. Calculate the velocity
after the sudden change (a shock wave) illustrated
in Fig P4.38. Also, calculate the mass flux and the
flow rates before and after the abrupt change.
