Question 1

What is compressible flow primarily concerned with?

  • Liquid flow
  • Gas flow under low velocities
  • Gas flow where density changes significantly

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider how flow characteristics change with speed and density.

Question 2

True or False: Choked flow occurs when the flow velocity exceeds Mach 1.

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about definitions and the critical limits of flow conditions.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

In a scenario where a jet engine operates at a flow condition with a Mach number of 2.5, calculate the stagnation properties, assuming air behaves as an ideal gas with a specific heat ratio of 1.4 at a temperature of 300 K.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Start with the stagnation temperature formula first and remember to adjust both variables.

Question 2

Discuss the implications of a normal shock occurring in the supersonic flow of a high-speed aircraft at cruise altitude. Include effects on efficiency and performance.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider both thermodynamic effects and practical implications on aircraft design.
