A compressed air nozzle has a diameter of .250in and line pressure of 109psi. Atmospheric pressure is 14.7psi. What is the mass flow rate and velocity of the nozzle? If five nozzles are attached to the same air line with 109psi, what will the mass flow rate and velocity be then? Is either flow choked?

I need to design an air nozzle for a compressed air system with multiple outlets. All I know about the current system is there is 109 psi available in the air line. If I use the mass flow rate equation for a compressed ideal gas, how do I know the pressure hasn’t dropped in the line to decrease the Mach number as I increase the area of the nozzles? If the flow is choked, will the velocity remain constant as...

In a supermarket, air at atmospheric pressure and 25 °C is supplied to an air handling unit through a rectangular duct with a cross section of 0.5 m x 0.1 m. The air handling unit will distribute 2/3 of the air to the large shopping area of the supermarket at 25 °C, and it will cool the remaining air to -5 °C and distribute it to a walk-in refrigerator. To avoid frictional pressure losses, the average air velocity in the...

Air is supplied to a convergent–divergent nozzle from a large tank in which the pressure and temperature are kept at 700 kPa and 40°C, respectively. If the nozzle has an exit area that is 1.6 times the throat area and if a normal shock occurs in the nozzle at a section where the area is 1.2 times the throat area, find the pressure, temperature, and Mach number at the nozzle exit. Assume one-dimensional, isentropic flow.

In class we showed that hot air at atmospheric pressure is less dense than cooler air at the same pressure. Because of this difference hot-air balloons can stay aloft. Assume that you have an air-balloon that has the volume of 500 m3 and the surrounding air is at 100C. You want to lift 250 kg object (in addition to the mass of the hot air that is inside the balloon). What must be the temperature of the air in the...

Air is supplied to a convergent–divergent nozzle from a reservoir where the pressure is 100 kPa. The air is then discharged through a short pipe into another reservoir where the pressure can be varied. The cross-sectional area of the pipe is twice the area of the throat of the nozzle. Friction and heat transfer may be neglected throughout the flow. If the discharge pipe has constant cross-sectional area, determine the range of static pressure in the pipe for which a...

A mole of air is sampled from the atmosphere when the atmospheric pressure is 765 mm Hg, the temperature is 25 C, and relative humidity is 75%. The sample of air is placed inside a closed container and heated to 135 C and then compressed to 2 atm. What are the relative humidity, the humidity, and the mole fraction of water in the compressed air?
