State the necessary assumptions and calculate, (a) stagnation temperature (b) stagnation pressure, and (c) stagnation density.(d) With the specified inlet velocity a gas is flowing isentropically in the converging duct. At thethroat if we assume that the velocity is supersonic, how does the mass flow rate be affectedcompared to sonic velocity at the throat. How could supersonic velocity can be achieved in thiscase?

- In compressible flow, velocity measurements with a Pitot probe can be grossly in error if relations developed for incompressible flow are used. Therefore, it is essential that compressible flow relations be used when evaluating flow velocity from Pitot probe measurements. Consider supersonic flow of air through a channel. A probe inserted into the flow causes a shock wave to occur upstream of the probe, and it measures the stagnation pressure and temperature to be 620 kPa and 340 K, respectively. If the static pressure upstream is 110 kPa, determine the flow velocity.arrow_forwardThe converging-diverging flow domain is shown in Figure 1. The inlet diameter is 0.2 m, the throat diameter is 0.15 m, and the outlet diameter is 0.24 m.
