Determine the throat area and calculate the exit area


A converging-diverging nozzle discharges air into a receiver where the static pressure is 103.5 kPa. A 0.0929 m^2 duct feeds the nozzle with air at 690 kPa, 171.3 deg. Celsius, and a velocity such that the Mach number M1 = 0.3. The exit area is such that the pressure at the nozzle exit exactly matches the receiver pressure. Assume steady, one-dimensional flow, perfect gas. The nozzle is adiabatic and there are no losses. (a) Calculate the flow rate. (b) Determine the throat area. (c) Calculate the exit area.
