Question

Falcon 9 rocket engine, fuel mixture LOX/RP1 is combusted in a large tank and exhausts
through a converging-diverging (C-D) nozzle. The combustion gas (k = 1.221, R = 0.3885
kJ/kg.K) in the large tank has a temperature of 3500 K and pressure 9 MPa (abs). The throat
diameter of the C-D nozzle is 0.5334 m and the nozzle operates at design condition at 20
km altitude. The flow in the C-D nozzle is steady and isentropic.
Air pressure above sea level can be calculated as :
p = 101325 (1 – H x 2.25577 x 10-5)5.25588
where
101325 = normal temperature and pressure at sea level (Pa)
p = air pressure (Pa)
H = altitude above sea level (m)


Express ALL answers in 4 significant figures.


(a) Calculate : Velocity at the Exit and the diameter of the EXIT.

(b) Calculate the Thrust produced.
