Question: Air is drawn through Laval nozzle which passes through section 1 , 3 0 mm diameter with a speed of 7 0 m / s

Air is drawn through Laval nozzle which passes through section 1,30 mm diameter with a speed of 70 m/s, while it has an absolute temperature and pressure of 300 K and 300 kPa respectively. The sonic flow is produced at the nozzle throat and supersonic flow is occur at section 2, where the diameter is 23 mm. Determine the Mach number at section 1, the required area of the throat to produce sonic flow, and the Mach number, temperature, pressure and velocity at section 2. Given gas constant 287 J/kg.K and specific heat ratio 1.4 for air.
