QUESTION 13 5 points Sa A turbine nozzle vane at high speed exhibits a normal shock. The flow is modelled as analogous to that through a convergent-divergent de Laval nozzle with a normal shock at the nozzle exit. Just upstream of the shock, the exit Mach number Me = 1.09, the absolute static pressure pe = 280 kPa, the static temperature Te = 586 K, the ratio of specific heats of the combustion products k = 1.35, and the constant pressure specific heat capacity Cp = 1027 J.kg 16-1 Assuming the combustion products are constant property ideal gasses, determine the density of the combustion products pb after the shock. State your answer in kg m-3 to two decimal places and enter the numerical value only Partial credit is awarded for a reasonable approximation to the correct numerical answer.
