Consider a rocket engine burning hydrogen and oxygen. The total mass flow of the propellant plus oxidizer

Question:

Consider a rocket engine burning hydrogen and oxygen. The total mass flow of the propellant plus oxidizer into the combustion chamber is 287.2 kg/s. The combustion chamber temperature is 3600 K. Assume that the combustion chamber is a low-velocity reservoir for the rocket engine. If the area of the rocket nozzle throat is 0.2 m2, calculate the combustion chamber (reservoir) pressure. Assume that the gas that flows through the engine has a ratio of specific heats, y = 1.2, and a molecular weight of 16.
