Air at 150 kPa and 25°C is transported through a 2-inch Schedule 40 commercial steel pipe. Consider that the air behaves as an ideal gas, that the flow is adiabatic and that the Mach number under these conditions of pressure and temperature is 0.35. Calculate the length of the pipe when the air pressure and temperature decrease to 54.375 kPa and -10.6°C.

Question
Air at 150 kPa and 25°C is transported
through a 2-inch Schedule 40 commercial
steel pipe. Consider that the air behaves as an
ideal gas, that the flow is adiabatic and that
the Mach number under these conditions of
pressure and temperature is 0.35. Calculate
the length of the pipe when the air pressure
and temperature decrease to 54.375 kPa and
-10.6°C.
