Base 003 PDF

This 3 page document appears to be a study guide or exam for a course on high speed aerodynamics. It contains 9 questions related to concepts in compressible flow, supersonic and hypersonic aerodynamics. The questions cover topics such as entropy, oblique shock waves, swept wing analysis, and non-dimensional mass flow parameters. Diagrams and derivations of equations are also requested. The exam allows the use of calculators and reference tables to complete the problems in the allotted 3 hours.

BASE-003 : HIGH SPEED AERODYNAMICS


Maximum Marks : 70
Time : 3 hours
Note : Attempt any seven questions. All questions carry equal
marks. Use of scientific calculator, steam table and
normal shock table is permitted.
1.

(a) Define entropy. What is it's unit ? Is it an


extensive property or intensive property ?
(b) If the change in entropy of the surroundings
for a process at 451 K and constant pressure
is 326 J/K, what is the heat flow absorbed
by for the system ?
(c) A change of state that occurs in a system is
accompanied by 64 kJ of heat, which is
transferred to the surroundings at a constant
pressure and a constant temperature of
300 K. Calculate AS surr. for this process.

3.

Air at M1 = 2.0 and at a pressure of 70 KPa flows 10


along a wall which bends away at an angle of
12 from the direction of flow. Determine the
Mach number and pressure after the bend. If in
another case, the flow experiences a compression
over the concave wall which actually bends
through the same angle determine the Mach
number and pressure with same free stream
conditions. Sketch the flow fields in both the cases.

4.

Define the following terminology in compressible 10


aerodynamics. Critical Mach number, sub critical
Mach number, super critical Mach number, crest
critical Mach number and transonic Mach
number. Also present all of the above on a plot.

5.

(a) Write a short note on low density flows


associated with hypersonic flow.

(b) Describe in brief the lift effect in wind


tunnels.

(a) Explain conical flow method treatment for


swept back wings.

(b) What are the design considerations for


Supersonic Aircraft ?

(a) Derive co-efficient of pressure for

(b) What is the consequence of linearity ?
Explain solution by it in detail.

8.

The 0 - 13- M relation for an oblique shock wave 10


Mi:sin 13 -1
is given by tan = 2cot13 MI (-y + cos2(3) + 2
Consider the 0 -13- M diagram and explain the
following situation :
If in a given physical problem 0 is fixed and M1 is
increased.

9.

Consider the equation of continuity under 10


isentropic flow conditions and define the
