Question: ( 2 5 points ) We consider the two dimensional supersonic air - intake illustrated here. The upstream part of the air intake is constituted

(25 points) We consider the two dimensional supersonic air-intake illustrated here. The upstream part of the air intake is constituted by a simple wedge of angle The configuration is such that: The air intake is adapted for an upstream Mach number Mo=2.0 The critical regime is established and the Mach number M1 in front of the terminal shock is equal to 1.4. Diffuser terminal section area A2=0.8m2, flow Mach number is M2=0.4 and the diffuser pressure recovery coefficient is 0.97(subsonic part).
