Textbook Question
Chapter 12, Problem 76P
A jet transport aircraft, with pressurized cabin, cruises at 11 km altitude. The cabin temperature and pressure initially are at 25°C and equivalent to 2.5 km altitude. The interior volume of the cabin is 25 m3. Air escapes through a small hole with effective flow area of 0.002 m2. Calculate the time required for the cabin pressure to decrease by 40 percent. Plot the cabin pressure as a function of time.
