Chapter 12, Problem 46P
Nitrogen flows from a large tank, through a convergent nozzle of 2-in. tip diameter, into the atmosphere. The temperature in the tank is 200°F. Calculate pressure, velocity, temperature, and sonic velocity in the jet, and calculate the flow rate when the tank pressure is (a) 30 psia and (b) 25 psia. Barometric pressure is 15.0 psia. What is the lowest tank pressure that will produce sonic velocity in the jet? What is this velocity, and what is the flowrate?

2. An air tank with a nozzle has a pressure of 196.32 KPa and density of 1.9 Kg/m³. Outside the converging-
diverging nozzle, the pressure is atmospheric and designed to have a Mach No. of 1.0 and 1.5 at the throat
and exit respectively. The area at the throat is 0.11m2. Calculate the following: (a) Temperature and speed
of sound at the tank. (b) Pressure, density, temperature and speed of sound at the throat. (c) Mass flow at
the exit.
3. Assume the turbine as an incompressible flow machine. The average meridional speed is given as 150m/s. The flow coefficient is 0.5. Determine the blade speed that satisfies the above conditions.4. In a two-dimensional compressor cascade, inlet stagnation air pressure is 1.5 bar and inlet stagnation temperature is 330K. For an inlet Mach number of 0.75 and an inlet flow angle of 500, the exit flow angle is measured as 15.80. Determine the mass flow rate per unit frontal area, the exit Mach number and the static pressure ratio across the cascade. Assume the flow is isentropic.
The stagnation chamber of a wind tunnel is connected to a high pressure air bottle farm which is outside
the laboratory building. The two are connected by a long pipe which has a inside diameter of 4 inches. If
the static pressure ratio between the bottle farm and the stagnation chamber is 10 and the bottle farm
static pressure is 100 atm, how long can the pipe be without choking and what is the change in entropy?
Assume adiabatic,subsonic, one-dimensional flow with a friction coefficient of 0.005.
