Problem 13.199

The document summarizes the solution to a physics problem involving air flow into an engine. It calculates: 1) The pressure of the air in the engine assuming isentropic flow, which is 1837 kPa. 2) The pressure after a 7.5 degree deflection in the engine, which is 86.8 kPa. 3) The pressure after a normal shock in the engine, which is 690 kPa. It then notes the pressure would be 517 kPa if slowing from the initial Mach 3 flow only with a normal shock.

Problem 13.

199 [Difficulty: 4]

Given: Air flow into engine

Find: Pressure of air in engine; Compare to normal shock

Solution:

The given or available data is: k = 1.4


p1 = 50 kPa
M1 = 3
= 7.5 o

Equations and Computations:

Assuming isentropic flow deflection

p 0 = constant

p 02 = p 01

For p 01 we use Eq. 13.7a (using built-in function Isenp (M , k ))

(13.7a)

p 01 = 1837 kPa
p 02 = 1837 kPa

For the deflection = 7.5 o

From M 1 and Eq. 13.55 (using built-in function Omega (M , k ))

(13.55)

1 = 49.8 o

Deflection = 2 - 1 = (M 2) - (M 1) (1)

Applying Eq. 1 2 = 1 -  (Compression!)

2 = 42.3 o
From 2, and Eq. 13.55 (using built-in function Omega (M , k ))

For 2 = 42.3 o

M2 = 2.64

(Use Goal Seek to vary M 2 so that 2 is correct)

Hence for p 2 we use Eq. 13.7a


(using built-in function Isenp (M , k ))

p 2 = p 02/(p 02/p 2)

p2 = 86.8 kPa

For the normal shock (2 to 3) M2 = 2.64

From M 2 and p 2, and Eq. 13.41d (using built-in function NormpfromM (M ,k ))

(13.41d)

p3 = 690 kPa

For slowing the flow down from M 1 with only a normal shock, using Eq. 13.41d

p = 517 kPa
