A two-dimensional converging duct is being designed for a high-speed wind tunnel. The bottom wall of the duct is to be flat and horizontal, and the top wall is to be curved in such a way that the axial wind speed u increases approximately linearly from u1 = 100 m/s at section (1) to u2 = 300 m/s at section 2. Meanwhile, the air density ? is to decrease approximately linearly from ?1 = 1.2 kg/m3 at section (1) to ?2 = 0.85 kg/m3 at section (2).
