At M1 = 2.8345, from the Rayleigh relation we find that To1/To* = 0.6702. Hence, To* =
308/0.6702 = 459. 5643K.

Problem 6. – A. supersonic flow at po = 1.0 MPa and To = 1000 K enters a 5 cm diameter
duct at Mach 1.8. Heat is added to the flow via a chemical reaction taking place inside the
duct. Determine the heat transfer rate in kilowatts necessary to choke the duct. Assume
the air (γ = 1.4, R = 0.287 kJ/kg · K and cp = 1.004 kJ/ kg · K) to behave as a perfect gas
with constant specific heats; neglect changes in the composition of the gas stream due to
the chemical reaction.
Problem 7. – Heat is added to airflow (γ = 1.4 and R = 0.287 kJ/kg · K) in a constant-area
duct at the rate of 30 kJ/m. If flow enters at Mach 0.20, T1= 300 K, and p1 = 100 kPa,
determine M(x), p(x), T(x), and po(x).
