3) A wind tunnel nozzle is designed to operate at a Mach number of 5. To check the flow velocity, a pitot probe is placed at the nozzle exit. Since the probe tip is blunt, a normal shock stands off the tip of the probe. If the nozzle exit static pressure is 10 kPa, what absolute pressure should the pitot probe measure? If the stagnation temperature before the nozzle is 1450 K, what is the nozzle exit velocity? Note, the Pitot probe is oriented normal to the flow and measures a stagnation pressure. 3) A wind tunnel nozzle is designed to operate at a Mach number of 5.
