11. An aeroplane is flying at 1000 km/hr through still air having a pressure of 78.5 kN
(abs) and temperature -8 0C. Calculate on the stagnation point on the nose of the
Plane: Stagnation Pressure, Stag. Temperature and Stag. density. . Take for air =
R = 287 J/kg K and ϒ = 1.4.
Ans: p0 = 126.1 kN/m2, T0 = 30.4 0C, ρ0 = 1.448 kg/m3
Air has a velocity of 1000 km/hr at a pressure of 9.81 kN/m2 vacuum and a temp o
47 oC. Compute its stagnation properties and the local Mach No. Take atm air =
98.1 kN/m2, R = 287 J/kg K and ϒ = 1.4.
Ans: p0 = 131.3 kN/m2, T0 = 85.4 0C, ρ0 = 1.276 kg/m3
12. Normal Shock
•For supersonic flow in a passage or around a body, the downstream pressure and
Geometrical conditions may require an abrupt reduction of velocity and conseque
changes of the flow properties.
•A shock is then said to be occurred.
•Shock waves are highly localized irreversibility's In the flow. Shock formation is
possible for confined as well as for external flows.
•Normal shocks are substantially perpendicular to the flow and oblique shocks are
inclined at other angles.

15. Calculate the downstream Mach No, pressure, temperature and shock strength o
Normal shock wave observed to occur in an air nozzle at
M1 = 2, p1 = 20 kN/m2, T1 = 300 K
Ans: p2 = 90 kN/m2, M2 = 0.575, T2 = 510 K, Shock strength = 3.5
For a normal shock wave in air, Mach No is 2. If the atmospheric pressure and air
Density are 26.5 kN/m2 and 0.413 kg/m3 respectively, determine the flow conditi
Before and after the shock wave. Take ϒ = 1.4.
Ans: M2 = 0.577, p2 = 119.25 kN/m2, ρ2 = 1.101 kg/m3, T1 = -49.4 0C
T2 = 104.3 0C, V1 = 599.4 m/s, V2 = 224.6 m/s
16. Conclusion from 1D analysis of a Normal Shock:
• A normal shock can occur only if M1 >1
• M2 must be less than 1 for a normal shock
• Entropy rise across a shock increases
• p2/p1 and T2/T1 increases with M1
