Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
A gas flows through a nozzle with a static enthalpy of 300 kJ/kg at a velocity of 20 m/s. Calculate its stagnation enthalpy and explain what this means for the flow.
💡 Hint: Remember, evaluate both static and dynamic components.
In a supersonic flow, if stagnation enthalpy increases by 50 kJ/kg after a shock, what can be inferred about the flow behavior and energy loss?
💡 Hint: Consider the relationship between stagnation properties and shock occurrence.
