approaches wedge parallel to the bottom surface. Calculate the lift and drag coefficients. (8)
Or
a) Explain the oblique and normal shock waves with property change across it with neat sketch.
Write all formulas related to oblique and normal shock waves.
b) Consider an oblique wave with a wave angle of 30o.The upstream flow mach number is
2.5.Calculate the deflection angle of the flow, pressure, temperature and mach number behind the
shock.
2. Consider a supersonic flow with an upstream mach number of 3 and pressure of 1bar.This flow is
first expanded around an expansion corner with 15o and then compressed through a compression
corner with equal angle of 15o so that it is returned to its original upstream condition. Calculate the
mach number and pressure downstream of the compression corner.(12)
A supersonic airplane is flying at mach 2 at an altitude of 16km.After some time t how far ahead the
airplane? (4)
Or
Consider a mach 3 flow. The flow is slowed by passing through an oblique shock wave with 40o wave
angle and then subsequently through a normal shock wave. Calculate the parameters behind the shock
wave.(10)
Consider an oblique shock wave with wave angle 35o and pressure ratio of 3.calculate upstream mach
number. (6)
3. Derive the relation for rankine- hugonoit relation (8)
A normal shock wave propagates down a constant area duct into stagnant air at a pressure of 100kpa and
temperature of 300k.If the pressure ratio across the shock wave is 3, find the shock speed and the velocity
of air behind the shock.
Or
Explain the pitot static tube construction and use. Brief the compressibility correction for subsonic
incompressible, subsonic compressible and supersonic compressible flow.
4. i)Derive the --M relation. Explain attached and detached shock waves.
ii)Explain the effect of increasing the upstream mach number and the effect of increasing the deflection
angle.
Or
