Produce a flowchart to calculate the power performance analysis [Thrust & Torque] of a wind/tidal turbine between the experimental data and theoretical data of a hydrofoil by using Blade Element Momentum Theory. [Hints: polynomial fit and Viterna equations are included in calculation and Power Coefficient (for both exp and theo) vs TSR graph is expected as the result.]

(1) [1 Point] True or False: A shock wave is a thin region of highly viscous flow, and the flow through the shock is adiabatic but nonisentropic.
(2) [1 Point] True or False: For hypersonic flow, the ratio of specific heats for air (??) can be assumed to be constant.
(3) [1 Point] True or False: A normal shock wave is a shock wave that makes an oblique angle with respect to the upstream flow.
(4) [1 Point] True or False: The NACA 2412 airfoil has a maximum camber that is less than a NACA 0015 airfoil.
(5) [1 Point] True or False: The critical Mach number is the free stream Mach number at which supersonic flow will occur at a point on the airfoil.

Consider a constant pressure device. The inlet flow to this device is moist air at 100 kPa, 40oC, 40% relative humidity. The outlet flow from this device is cooled to 15oC. Determine:
(a) the humidity ratio of the inlet and the exit flow,
(b) the heat transfer in the device per kg dry air,
(c) repeat (a) and (b) using the psychrometric chart.

Problem 15.10: Liquid octane (C8H18) enters a steady-flow combustion chamber at 25°C and 1 atm at a rate of 0.35 kg/min. It is burned with 50 percent excess air that also enters at 25°C and 1 atm. After combustion, the products are allowed to cool to 25°C. Assuming complete combustion and that all the H2O in the products is in liquid form, determine (a) the heat transfer rate from the combustion chamber, (b) the entropy generation rate, and (c) the exergy destruction rate. Assume that T0 = 298 K and the products leave the combustion chamber at 1 atm pressure.
