Ideal Gas Result

Rewrite the equation defining the stagnation enthalpy as

For ideal gases with constant specific heats, the enthalpy
difference becomes 

For the isentropic process, the stagnation pressure can be
determined from

or

The ratio of the stagnation density to static density can be


expressed as

Example 2
 An aircraft is flying at a cruising speed of 250 m/s at an altitude
of 5000 m where the atmospheric pressure is 54.05 kPa and the
ambient air temperature is 255.7 K. The ambient air is first
decelerated in a diffuser before it enters the compressor.
Assuming both the diffuser and the compressor to be isentropic,
determine (a) the stagnation pressure at the compressor inlet and
(b) the required compressor work per unit mass if the stagnation
pressure ratio of the compressor is 8.

21
Solution
 High-speed air enters the diffuser and the compressor of an
aircraft. The stagnation pressure of the air and the compressor
work input are to be determined.
 Assumptions 1 Both the diffuser and the compressor are
isentropic. 2 Air is an ideal gas with constant specific heats
at room temperature.
 Properties The constant-pressure specific heat cp and the
specific heat ratio k of air at room temperature are
cp = 1.005 kJ/kg . K and k = 1.4
 Analysis
(a) the stagnation temperature T01 at the compressor inlet can
be determined from

22
Solution

 Then

 That is, the temperature of air would increase by 31.1°C


and the pressure by 26.72 kPa as air is decelerated from
250 m/s to zero velocity. These increases in the temperature
and pressure of air are due to the conversion of the kinetic
energy into enthalpy.
23
Solution
 To determine the compressor work, we need to know the
stagnation temperature of air at the compressor exit T02.

 Disregarding potential energy changes and heat transfer, the


compressor work per unit mass of air is determined from
