Question: Consider a convergent - divergent nozzle with an exit - to - throat area Ae / A * = 3 . A normal shock is

Consider a convergent-divergent nozzle with an exit-to-throat area Ae/A*=3. A normal shock is inside the divergent portion at a location where the local area ratio is A/A*=2. The working fluid is a perfect gas with properties of air at room temperature: specific heat ratio 1.4 and gas constant 287 J/(kgK). Ambient pressure is 101.325 kPa. Calculate the ratio of exit pressure to combustion chamber pressure, Pe/Po.(calculate Pe/Po where Po=Pc for no shock and with shock cases)
