Problem 10. – Air (γ = 1.4, R = 0.287 kJ/kg · K and cp = 1.0045 kJ/kg · K) flows through
a constant-area duct is connected to a reservoir at a temperature of 500ºC and a pressure
of 500 kPa by a converging nozzle, as shown in Figure P10.10. Heat is lost at the rate of
250 kJ /kg. (a) Determine the exit exit pressure and Mach number and the mass flow rate
for a back pressure of 0 kPa. (b) Determine the exit pressure and Mach number when a
normal shock stands in the exit plane of the duct.
Figure Pl0.10
(a) Because the back pressure is 0 kPa and because heat is removed from the air, the
flow in the duct will be supersonic and accelerating. This will occur only if M1 = 1.0.
Therefore, To1 = To* = 773K. From isentropic flow relations, (T/To)1 = 0.8333 and
(p/po)1 = 0.5283. So, T1 = (0.8333)773= 644.1667K and p1 = p* = (0.5283)500 =
264.1500 kPa. From the energy balance on the duct

(b) The Mach number just upstream of the shock is 2.7613. From the normal shock
relations we find the Mach number on the downstream side to be 0.4910 and the exit
pressure is determined by multiplying the static pressure ratio across the shock 8.7289
times the pressure found in part (a), i.e., pe = (54.3013)8.7289 = 473.9906kPa = pb.
Problem 11. – Consider flow in a constant-area duct with friction and heat transfer. To
maintain a constant subsonic Mach number, should heat be added or removed? Repeat
for supersonic flow.
Problem 12. – For the system shown in Problem 10, determine the mass flow rate if 250
kJ/kg of heat energy is added to the flow in the duct. The duct diameter is 2 cm. Repeat
for a back pressure of 100 kPa. Working fluid is air (γ = 1.4, cp = 1004.5J/ kg · K and
R = 0.287 kJ/kg · K).

Problem 18. – A subsonic stream of air (γ = 1.4, R = 0.287 kJ/kg · K and
cp = 1.0045 kJ/kg · K) flows through a linear, conically shaped, nozzle, i.e.,
D = Di + (De – Di)x/L. The diameter at the inlet is 2 cm and the diameter at the exit is 5
cm. The nozzle is 10 cm long. The entering Mach number is 0.6. Heat is added to flow
at a rate so that the stagnation temperature varies linearly with distance. The stagnation
temperature at the inlet is 300K and increases 30K per meter of nozzle. Use Heun’s
predictor-corrector scheme on a coarse grid that includes 11 grid points to determine the
Mach number distribution within the duct. To verify the computations determine the exit
Mach number for the case when the heat transfer is zero and compare it to the value
determined from isentropic flow computations.
Here we will determine the exit Mach number against which we can contrast the
computed value. To obtain this value we follow the usual procedure in which we use the
inlet Mach number to find (A/A*)i and then determine (A/A*)e from the following

kJ/kg · K) flows through a linear, conically shaped, nozzle, i.e., D = Di + (De – Di)x/L.
The diameter at the inlet is 2 cm and the diameter at the exit is 5 cm. The nozzle is 10 cm
long. The entering Mach number is 3. Heat is added to flow at a rate so that the
stagnation temperature varies linearly with distance. The stagnation temperature at the
inlet is 300K and increases 30K per meter of nozzle. The pressure is such that a normal
shock wave stands half way down the nozzle. Use Euler’s explicit method to determine
the Mach number distribution within the duct.

As can be seen, Heun’s method, which is a 2nd order method produces more accuracy for
the same grid size. Euler’s results are not great particularly at larger grid sizes.
Nonetheless, the following are summary results for the problem using Euler on the
