MCQ : Compressible flow

Nitrogen is escaping from a pressurized bottle (internal temperature 300 K, internal pressure 650 kPa) through an open valve that happens to be shaped like a converging-diverging nozzle, with an area ratio of 10 on the diverging side of the throat. What area ratio at the shock is required to get the exit pressure from the nozzle to equal atmospheric pressure (100 kPa)? (It’s a fairly complex calculation, so your answer may differ by 1 or 2 in the least significant figure shown.) a)1.53 b)8.32 c)8.67 d)9.62

Nitrogen gas is contained in a rigid 1-m3 tank, initially at 5 bar, 300 K. Heat transfer to the contents of the tank occurs until the temperature has increased to 400 K. During the process, a pressure-relief valve allows nitrogen to escape, maintaining constant pressure in the tank. Neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, and using the ideal gas model with constant specific heats evaluated at 350 K, determine (a) the mass of nitrogen that escapes, in kg, and (b)...

Air is cooled from 300 K to 273 K as it flows steadily through a duct. Frictional dissipation may be neglected. Cooling is achieved by removing heat via a heat pump. The work requirement is 1.15 times that of a reversible heat pump operating between 263 and 310 K. For each mole of air flowing through the duct, calculate: Air can be assumed an ideal gas with a constant heat capacity cP of 3.50R. The temperature of the surroundings is...
