Considering Compressible Flow • In many applications of engineering interest, gases move at relatively high speeds and exhibit significant changes in specific volume (density). They include • Flows through the nozzles and diffusers of jet engines. • Flows through wind tunnels, shock tubes, and steam ejectors. These flows are known as compressible flows. • Next, we consider some important preliminaries, including the • momentum equation for steady one-dimensional flow • velocity of soundand Mach number • stagnation state
Momentum Equation forSteady One-Dimensional Flow • Recall Newton’s law of motion for a closed system: F = ma • whereF is the resultant force acting on a system of mass m and a is the acceleration. • We also need a form of Newton’s second law of motion appropriate for the study of control volumes. • For a control volume such as the one-inlet, one-exit control volume shown here, momentum is carried in and out at the inlets and exits, respectively, according to Rate of momentum transfer in Rate of momentum transfer out (Eq. 9.30)
Momentum Equation forSteady One-Dimensional Flow • In words, Newton’s second law for a control volume is: (= 0 at steady state) time rate of change of momentum contained within the control volume resultant force acting on the control volume net rate at which momentum is transferred intothe control volume accompanying mass flow = + • The form of the momentum equation for a one-inlet, one-exit control volume at steady state is: (Eq. 9.31)
Velocity of Sound • A sound wave is a small pressure disturbance that propagates through a gas, liquid, or solid at a velocity c that depends on the properties of the medium. • Analyses using mass and momentum equations supported by experimental data reveal that the relation between pressure and specific volume across a sound wave is nearly isentropic, and that its velocity c – called the velocity of sound – is given by (Eq. 9.36b)
Velocity of Sound • The special case of an ideal gas with constant specific heats is used extensively in Chapter 9. For this case, the relationship between pressure and specific volume for fixed entropy is pvk = constant where k is the specific heat ratio. Using this relationship, Eq. 9.36b becomes (Eq. 9.37) • The velocity of sound is an intensive property whose value depends on the state of the medium through which sound propagates. While sound propagates nearly isentropically, the medium itself may be undergoing any process.
Velocity of Sound = 347 m/s (1138 ft/s) = 506 m/s (1660 ft/s) Example: Calculate the velocity of sound in air at 300 K and 650 K. • From Table A-20 at 300 K, k = 1.4. Thus from Eq. 9.37 • From Table A-20 at 650 K, k = 1.37. Thus from Eq. 9.37
Mach Number • In subsequent discussions, the ratio ofvelocity V at a state in a flowing fluid to the value of sonic velocityc at the same state plays an important role. This ratio is called the Mach number, M. (Eq. 9.38) • Several important terms associated with Mach number are shown in the table.
Stagnation State Properties • The h-s diagram shows a compressible flow process. Associated with each state of the flow is a reference state known as the stagnation state. Stagnation state: ho = stagnation enthalpy, po = stagnation pressure, To = stagnation temperature • Thestagnation state is the state the flowing gas would attain if it were decelerated to zero velocity isentropically. • By reducing an energy balance for a hypothetical diffuser that – in principle only – decelerates the gas, we get (Eq. 9.39)
One-Dimensional Steady Flowin Nozzles and Diffusers • Owing to important applications for nozzles and diffusers, the remainder of our study of compressible flow centers on them. • We begin by establishing criteria for determining whether a nozzle or diffuser should have a converging, diverging, or converging-diverging shape. • These criteria are determined from differential equations obtained in Sec.9.13.1 using isentropic property relations. Since actual flows through well-designed nozzles and diffusers are nearly isentropic (Sec. 6.12.2), findings drawn from the differential equations are observed for such flows as well.
One-Dimensional Steady Flowin Nozzles and Diffusers • One of these equations relates velocity and pressure changes in the direction of flow: (Eq. 9.44) • When velocity increases: dV > 0, then pressure decreases: dp < 0. • When velocity decreases: dV < 0, then pressure increases: dp > 0.
One-Dimensional Steady Flowin Nozzles and Diffusers • Another equation relates velocity and area changes in the direction of flow: (Eq. 9.45) • There are four cases, each of which depends on the local Mach number M: • Subsonic nozzle: dV > 0 and M < 1→ dA < 0. The ductconverges. Subsonic Nozzle Velocity increases Area decreases Pressure decreases

Exploring the Effects of Area Changein Subsonic and Supersonic Flows • Consider a converging section with subsonic flow connected to a diverging section to form a converging-diverging duct. • If the Mach number is unity at the end of the converging section, and the flow continues to accelerate, the flow will become supersonic in the diverging section. M = 1at the throat. This is called a converging-diverging nozzle. Velocity increases, pressure decreases
Exploring the Effects of Area Changein Subsonic and Supersonic Flows • Consider a converging section with supersonic flow connected to a diverging section to form a converging-diverging duct. • If the Mach number is unity at the end of the converging section, and the flow continues to decelerate, the flow will become subsonic in the diverging section. M = 1at the throat. This is called a converging-diverging diffuser. Velocity decreases, pressure increases
Exploring the Effects of Area Changein Subsonic and Supersonic Flows • These findings indicate that a Mach number of unity can occur only at the location in a nozzle or diffuser where the flow area is a minimum. This location of minimum area is called the throat. • As shown in the following discussion, a Mach number of unity does not necessarily occur at the location where flow area is a minimum.
Effects of Back Pressure on Mass Flow Rate – Converging Nozzle • Consider a converging duct with stagnation conditions at the inlet, discharging into a region outside the nozzle where the pressure pB – called the back pressure – can be varied. • We explore how the mass flow rate through the nozzle and the pressure at the nozzle exit vary as the back pressure is decreased while keeping the nozzle inlet conditions fixed.

Eventually, as pBis decreased, a Mach number of unity is attained at the nozzle exit. The corresponding exit pressure is called the critical pressure, denoted by p*.The mass flow rate is the maximum possible and the nozzle is said to be choked.

Effects of Back Pressure – Converging-Diverging Nozzle Cases a, b, c, and d • Mass flow rate increases as pB is reduced in steps from po to pb, pc, and pd. • Flow accelerates in the converging section and then decelerates subsonically in the diverging section. • Eventually, when pB = pd, the pressure at the throat reaches p*, corresponding to a Mach number of unity there. At this condition the flow is choked, and mass flow rate cannot increase with further decrease in back pressure. Subsonic Nozzle Subsonic Diffuser
Effects of Back Pressure – Converging-Diverging Nozzle • As back pressure is reduced belowpd, the flow in the converging section is unchanged. • Normal shocks appear in the diverging section. Across each shock, there is an abrupt and irreversible increase in pressure accompanied by an abrupt decrease from supersonic to subsonic flow. • As the back pressure is reduced, the shocks move downstream until the normal shock stands at the exit plane (Case g). Cases e, f, and g Subsonic Nozzle Supersonic Nozzle upstream of normal shock • Flow is subsonic in the converging section. • At the throat, M = 1. • Flow accelerates supersonically through the diverging section. • Flow is subsonic just downstream of the exit plane.

Subsonic Nozzle Supersonic Nozzle
Modeling Normal Shocks • Depending on the back pressure, a normal shock can stand in the diverging section of a supersonic nozzle, as shown in the figure where the subscripts x and y denote, respectively, the states just upstream and downstream of the shock. • Since the thickness of the shock is small, there is no appreciable change in flow area across the shock and the only significant forces acting on the control volume in the direction of flow are the pressure forces. Additionally, for the control volume
Modeling Normal Shocks Since the shock is an irreversibility, the entropy balance requires that the downstream specific entropy sy is greater than the upstream specific entropy sx. • At steady state, mass, energy, momentum, and entropy balances reduce to give the following relations between the upstream, x, and downstream, y, locations. Mass: (Eq. 9.46) (Eq. 9.47a) Energy: Momentum: (Eq. 9.48) Entropy: (Eq. 9.49)
Modeling Normal Shocks • The mass and energyequations together with property data for the particular gas combine to give a curve on an h-s diagram called a Fanno line. Mass: Energy:
Modeling Normal Shocks • The mass and momentum equations together with property data for the particular gas combine to give a curve on an h-s diagram called a Rayleigh line. Mass: Momentum:
Modeling Normal Shocks • The upstream and downstreamstatesx and ymust satisfy all three equations (mass, energy, and momentum). Accordingly, the only simultaneous solutions to them are at the intersections of the Fanno and Rayleigh lines. • Since sy > sx, state y falls at the upper intersection of the two curves where flow is subsonic while state x falls at the lower intersection where flow is supersonic.
Modeling Normal Shocks • The figure also locates the stagnation statescorresponding to the states x and y upstream and downstream of the shock, respectively. • Stagnation enthalpydoes not change across the shock. • Stagnation pressure decreases across the shock.
Isentropic Flow Functions for Ideal Gases with Constant Specific Heats • Next, for the case of ideal gases with constant specific heats, Eqs. 9.50 and 9.51 are introduced. • They relate temperatureT and pressurep at a state of a compressible flow to the corresponding stagnation temperatureTo and stagnation pressurepo in terms of the specific heat ratio k and Mach number M:
Isentropic Flow Functions for Ideal Gases with Constant Specific Heats • These equations are developed in Sec. 9.14.1 using mass and energy balances together with isentropic property relations. (Eq. 9.50) (Eq. 9.51)
Isentropic Flow Functions for Ideal Gases with Constant Specific Heats Variation of A/A* with Mach number in isentropic flow for k = 1.4. • Additionally, the cross-sectional area A at a location where the Mach number is M is related to the area A* that – for the same mass flow rate and stagnation state – would be required for sonic flow (M = 1). (Eq. 9.52) • The variation of A/A* with M is shown in the figure for k= 1.4. The figure shows that a unique value of A/A* corresponds to any choice of M. • However, for a given value of A/A* other than unity, there are two possible values for the Mach number, one subsonic and one supersonic.
Isentropic Flow Functions for Ideal Gases with Constant Specific Heats • Using Eqs. 9.50-9.52, this tabulation for k = 1.4–Table 9.2 – can be developed. Use of Table 9.2 for problem solving is illustrated in Example 9.15. • Eqs. 9.50-9.52 are readily programmed for use with hand-held calculators.
