A flow passes through a normal shock wave has a pressure, temperature and Mach number of 1\,atm,\,295\,K and 2.8 upstream of the shock wave. Find {P_2},{T_2},\,{\rho _2},\,{M_2},{P_{02}} and {T_{02}} downstream of the shock wave.
A flow passes through a normal shock wave has a pressure, temperature and Mach number of 1\,atm,\,295\,K and 2.8 upstream of the shock wave. Find {P_2},{T_2},\,{\rho _2},\,{M_2},{P_{02}} and {T_{02}} downstream of the shock wave.
From the table of normal shock properties; for, Mach number of 2.8, \frac{{{p_2}}}{{{p_1}}} = 8.98, \frac{{{\rho _2}}}{{{\rho _1}}} = 3.664, \frac{{{T_2}}}{{{T_1}}} = 2.451, \frac{{{p_{02}}}}{{{p_1}}} = 10.57, {M_2} = 0.4882.
Therefore,
{p_2} = 8.98{p_1} = 8.98\left( {1atm} \right) = 8.98\,atm
{T_2} = 2.451{T_1} = 2.451\left( {295} \right) = 723.045\,K
{p_{_1}} = {\rho _1}R{T_1} \Rightarrow {\rho _1} = \left( {\frac{{1 \times \left( {1.01 \times {{10}^5}} \right)}}{{287 \times 295}}} \right) = 1.193\,kg/{m^3}
{\rho _2} = 3.664\left( {1.193} \right) = 4.371\,kg/{m^3}
{p_{02}} = \left( {\frac{{{p_{02}}}}{{{p_1}}}} \right){p_1} = 10.57\left( 1 \right) = 10.57\,atm
From isentropic flow properties table, for, Mach number of 2.8, \frac{{{T_{01}}}}{{{T_1}}} = 2.568
Since, {T_{02}} = {T_{01}}, Total temperature is constant,
Therefore,
{T_{02}} = \left( {\frac{{{T_{01}}}}{{{T_1}}}} \right){T_1} = 2.568 \times \left( {295} \right) = 757.56\,K
