I need help on 4a Question 4In this open question, you are asked to propose a concept design and analyse a simplesupersonic wind tunnel using the knowledge gained in compressible flows. The designis based on a wind tunnel using air. You should specify and justify your chosen airconditions at the inlet/intake to the tunnel and other appropriate data needed in yourwork.In the test section of the tunnel, the airflow should be supersonic (for your design youshould choose one single value of Mach number in the range 1.2 to 5). The horizontallength of the test section in the air flow direction is set to 1m. To simplify the analysis,you can assume the airflow to be isentropic.The tasks of the assignment involve the followings, which should be included in yourreport:(a) Brief literature review on wind tunnels(b) (i) Specify and justify your chosen air conditions at the inlet/intake to the wind tunnel(air pressure, temperature, velocity etc...). (ii) Justify and select the differentcomponents/parts of your proposed wind tunnel.(c) Specify and justify the dimensions of the different components/parts of the proposedwind tunnel(d) Calculate and justify the test section cross-sectional area of the tunnel(e) Calculate and analyse the pressure and temperature at several locations of the windtunnel(f) Calculate or specify/justify the mass flow rate of air(g) Provide a simple sketch of the entire wind tunnel system with all its components(h) Overall discussion and analysis of your design

The temperature of the ball as a function of time, T(t) in thebath may be estimated by this equation:T(t) = (Ti – T∞)e–t/τ + T ∞where t is the time in seconds in the bath; Ti is the initial ball temperature;T∞ is the oil temperature; and τ is the time constant in seconds thatdepends upon the material of the ball, the geometry of the ball, and oilproperties. Assume that the initial ball temperature = 800°C, the oil temperature = 40°C, and the time constant = 50 seconds. Using MATLAB, find the time at which the temperature of the ball bearing equals 600°C, 300°C, and 50°C
For supersonic and hypersonic wind tunnels, a diffuser efficiency, ηD,can be defined as the ratio of the total pressures at the diffuser exit andnozzle reservoir, divided by the total pressure ratio across a normal shockat the test-section Mach number. This is a measure of the efficiency ofthe diffuser relative to normal shock pressure recovery. Consider asupersonic wind tunnel designed for a test-section Mach number of 3.0which exhausts directly to the atmosphere. The diffuser efficiency is 1.2.Calculate the minimum reservoir pressure necessary for running thetunnel.
A gasoline engine is at a location where the temperature is measured to be 14.8 °C and produces 300 kW at 5800 rpm while consuming 0.0184 kg/s of fuel. During operation, data shows that its mechanical energy loss is 18 %, the actual volume of air going into each cylinder is 80% (the volumetric efficiency has a negligible variation), and the actual fuel-to-air ratio is 0.065. What were the engine parameters at sea level conditions if the pressure here is 99.3 kPa and the temperature here is 18 0C hotter than that of the elevated condition? Determine at sea-level conditions the Brake Power in kW.
