Solve for the exit mach number Now determine the stagnation pressure ratio across the nozzle. 10/27/20 18 The shock Mach number is now determined from 10/27/20 19 As the nozzle pressure ratio is increased the shock moves downstream until it sits at the nozzle exit. The Mach number behind the shock is 10/27/20 20 This condition is reached when In summary, the shock-in-nozzle case occurs over the range 10/27/20 21 10.3.3 Case 3 - Isentropic supersonic flow in the nozzle i) Over expanded flow 10/27/20 22 ii) Fully expanded flow 10/27/20 23 iii) Under expanded flow 10/27/20 24 Figure 5.4 from Liepmann and Roshko 10/27/20 25 10.4.3 Gasdynamics of a double throat - Supersonic Wind Tunnel Start and Unstart 10/27/20 26 10/27/20 27 10/27/20 28 The shock moves downstream until a point is reached where it sits just upstream of station 2. 10/27/20 29 M 2 = M 3 = 3.368 M e = 2.99 All supersonic flow is established in the wind tunnel - the tunnel is said to have started. 10/27/20 30 10.5 Problems 10/27/20 31 10/27/20 32 10/27/20 33 10/27/20 34.
