The density of air in kg/m³ at the nozzle exit is
-
- 0.560
- 0.600
- 0.727
- 0.800
Correct Option: C
Given: T1 = 400 K, P1 = 300 kPa,
P2 = 50 kPa, R = 0.289 kJ/kgK
v = 1.4, A2 = 0.005 m²
Process from entrance to exit is isentropic process, therefore
= | γ-1/γ | ||||
T2 | P1 |
⇒ t2 = 400 | 0.4/1.4 | = 239.5 K | |||
P1 |
From the perfect gas equation,
ρ = | |
RT |
ρ2 = | = | = 0.727 kg/m³ | ||
RT2 | 0.287 × 239.5 |
