Question

Air is flowing in a wind tunnel at 25C,25^{\circ} \mathrm{C}, 95 kPa, and 250 m/s. The stagnation pressure at the location of a probe inserted into the flow section is (a) 184 kPa (b) 96 kPa (c) 161 kPa (d) 122 kPa (e) 135 kPa

Solution

Step 1
1 of 2

The stagnation pressure is determined from the usual relation where the stagnation temperature is expressed through the given static temperature and velocity:

P0=P(1+v22cpT)k/(k1)=95(1+250221005298)1.4/(1.41)kPa=134.5kPa\begin{align*} P_{0}&=P\bigg(1+\dfrac{v^{2}}{2c_{p}T}\bigg)^{k/(k-1)}\\ &=95\bigg(1+\dfrac{250^{2}}{2\cdot1005\cdot298}\bigg)^{1.4/(1.4-1)}\:\text{kPa}\\ &=\boxed{134.5\:\text{kPa}} \end{align*}
