Textbook Question
Chapter 12, Problem 90P
A supersonic aircraft cruises at M = 2.2 at 12 km altitude. A pitot tube is used to sense pressure for calculating air speed. A normal shock stands in front of the tube. Evaluate the local isentropic stagnation conditions in front of the shock. Estimate the stagnation pressure sensed by the pitot tube. Show static and stagnation state points and the process path on a Ts diagram.

The velocity ratio (v1/v2) of an isentropic flow through a supersonic wind tunnel is 0.615. if the mach number at the tunnels entry section is 0.95 find the value of mach number at the exit
Air at V_1 = 800 m/s, p_1 = 100 kPa, and T_1 = 300 K passes through a normal shock. Calculate the velocity V_2, temperature T_2, and pressure p_2 after the shock. What would be the values of T_2 and p_2 if the same velocity change were accomplished isentropically?
Air flows into a converging duct, and a normal shock stands at the exit of the duct. Downstream of the shock, the Mach number is 0.54. If p2/p1 = 2, compute the Mach number at the entrance of the duct and the area ratio A1/A2.
