Supersonic wind tunnels use a reservoir tank (or stagnation chamber) at high pressures, as there is not enough stagnation pressure or temperature in ambient air to achieve high speeds in the test section. You are to specify some parameters for a new supersonic wind tunnel. You need Mach 2.5 flow in the test section at simulated pressure and temperature of 10,000 ft standard altitude. The test section cross-sectional area is a 9 inch x 9 inch square.

Assuming you’re flowing air, determine the following:

a. Assuming choked flow, what nozzle throat area is needed to attain Mach 2.5 in the test section?

b. What reservoir pressure and temperature are required?

Apump is used to circulate hot water in a home heating system. water enters the well-insulated pump operating at steady state at a rate of 0.42 gal/min. the inlet pressure and temperature are 14.7 lbf/in.2, and 180°f, respectively; at the exit the pressure is 60 lbf/in.2 the pump requires 1/15 hp of power input. water can be modeled as an incompressible substance with constant density of 60.58 lb/ft3 and constant specific heat of 1 btu/lb or. neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the temperature change, in °r, as the water flows through the pump.
