(30 minutes) Consider a converging-diverging nozzle, which is open to stagnant atmosphere
at the inlet and connected to an infinitely large low-pressure reservoir downstream at the
outlet (see the figure below). The ambient pressure (pa) is 1 bar, the throat cross section area
is 0.1 m². Imagine that the pressure in the low-pressure reservoir (p₁) can be changed to
regulate the flow in the nozzle.

0.8 bar, the nozzle is choked and the flow in the converging-
diverging nozzle is subsonic. Find the exit cross-section area (Ae), the static pressure at
the exit (pe) and the Mach number at the exit (Me) for this case.
b) Determine the range of vacuum pressure (pv) for which there is a normal shock wave in
the diverging section of the nozzle.
c) Imagine that a pitot-tube is inserted at the exit of the nozzle. What would be the total
pressure reading when: (1) p₁ = 0.8 bar; (2) p, is adjusted such that the…
