Chapter 10, Problem 10.17P

A horizontal flow initially at Mach I flows over a downward-sloping expansion corner, thus creating a centered Prandtl-Meyer expansion wave. The streamlines that enter the head of the expansion wave curve smoothly and continuously downward through the expansion fan, and emerge parallel to the downward sloping surface downstream of the tail of the wave, as shown in Figure 9.2b. Imagine a polar coordinate system r , Φ with its origin at the expansion corner (the vertex of the Prandtl-Meyer expansion wave), with r the usual radial distance along a ray from the origin and Φ the polar angle of r measured from the horizontal. Because the upstream flow is at Mach 1, the head of the expansion fan is a Mach wave perpendicular to the free stream. Consider a given streamline entering the expansion wave at the point ( r , Φ ) = ( r * , π / 2 ) . Construct a method for calculating the shape of this streamline as a function of r and 4) through the expansion fan. Note: To solve this problem, material from both Chapters 9 and 10 is required.

A piston moves with constant velocity U0 in a cylinder having radius R. A liquid having density  leaves the open end with conical velocity proÖle V~ = V0(1-r/R)^k.Figure for problem 1.(a) If the exhaust port is closed, find the value of V0 in terms of U0. Be sure to define an appropriate control volume for solving this problem.(b) If V0 = U0, find the volume áow rate leaving through the exhaust port (in terms of U0 and R)
A sink of strength 20 m2/s is situated 3 m upstream of a source of 40 m²/s in a uniform stream. It is found that, at a point 2.5 m from both source and sink, the local velocity is normal to the line joining the source and sink. Find the velocity at this point and the velocity of the uniform stream. Locate any stagnation points and sketch the flow field.
Two radii rl and r2 (r2 > rl) in the same horizontal plane have the same values in a free vortex and in a forced vortex. The tangential velocity at radius rl is the same in both vortices. Determine, in terms of r1, the radius r2 at which the pressure difference between r1 and r2 in the forced vortex is twice that in the free vortex.
