At a given point in a supersonic wind tunnel, the pressure and temperature are 5×104 N/m2 and 200 K, respectively. The total pressure at this point is 1.5×106 N/m2. Calculate the local Mach number and total temperature.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The Mach number is 2.866

Total temperature To = 528.524K

Explanation:

[tex] Pressure (P)= 5 * 10^4 N/m^2 [/tex]

[tex] Total pressure (Po) = 1.5 * 10^6 N/m^2 [/tex]

Temperature (T) = 200K

For air, r= 1.4

To find the Mach number we use:

[tex] Po/P = [1 + (r - 1/2) M^2] ^ r^/^r^-^1 [/tex]

[tex] 1.5 * 10^6 / 5 * 10^4 =[ 1 + (1.4 -1 /2) (M^2) ] ^ 1^.^4^/^1^.^4^-^1 [/tex]

[tex] 0.3 * 10^2 = (1 + 0.2M^2) ^3^.^5 [/tex]

[tex] (0.3 * 10^2)^(1/3.5) = 1 + 0.2M^2 [/tex]

[tex] 2.6426 = 1 +0.2M^2 [/tex]

[tex] 2.6426 - 1 = 0.2M^2 [/tex]

1.6426 = 0.2M^2

[tex] M^2 = 1.6426/0.2 [/tex]

[tex]M = sqrt(1.6426/0.2) [/tex]

M = 2.866

To find Total Temperature :

[tex] To/T = (Po/P)^r^-^1^/^8) [tex]

[tex] To/200 = (1.5*10^6 / 5*10^4)^ 1^.^4^-^1^/^1^.^4) [/tex]

[tex] To/200 = (0.3 * 10^2)^0^.^2^8^5^7 [/tex]

To =528.524K
