Chapter 14, Problem 14.3P

Consider a hypersonic vehicle with a spherical nose flying at Mach 20 at a standard altitude of 150,000 ft. where the ambient temperature and pressure are 5 00 ° R and 3 .0 6 lb / ft 2 , respectively. At the point on the surface of the nose located 200 away from the stagnation point, estimate the: (a) pressure, (b) temperature. (c) Mach number, and (d) velocity of the flow.

Consider an airplane flying at a velocity of 250 m/s. Calculate its Mach number if it is flying at a standard altitude of (a) sea level, (b) 5 km, (c) 10 km.
The velocity ratio (v1/v2) of an isentropic flow through a supersonic wind tunnel is 0.615. if the mach number at the tunnels entry section is 0.95 find the value of mach number at the exit
Nitrogen at 700 kPa pressure and 300K temperature enters a convergent divergent nozzle at negligible speed and passes through a normal shock wave at the Mach number of 3. Calculate the pressure, temperature, velocity, Mach number and stop pressure in the flow behind the shock wave. Compare the values ​​you find with the values ​​found with the air passing through the normal shockwave under the same conditions.
