Ans. (b)
9.84 Air flows through a duct as in
Fig. P9.84, where A1 = 24 cm2, A2 = 18 cm2,
and A3 = 32 cm2. A normal shock stands
at section 2. Compute (a) the mass flow,
(b) the Mach number, and (c) the stagnation
pressure at section 3.
Solution: We have enough information
at section 1 to compute the mass flow:

Finally, go back and get the stagnation pressure ratio across the shock:
at Ma 2 ≈ 2.18,
po3
≈ 0.637, ∴ po3 = 0.637(683) ≈ 435 kPa

9.85 A large tank at 300 kPa delivers air through a nozzle of 1-cm2 throat area and 2.2-cm2
exit area. A normal shock wave stands in the exit plane. The temperature just downstream
