Nitrogen gas at 60 kPa and 78C enters an adiabatic diffuser steadily with a velocity of 275 m/s and leaves at 85 kPa and 278C. Determine (a) the exit velocity of the nitrogen and (b) the ratio of the inlet to exit area A1/A2. Reconsider Using EES (or other) software, investigate the effect of the inlet veloc- ity on the exit velocity and the ratio of the inlet-to-exit area. Let the inlet velocity vary from 210 to 350 m/s. Plot the final results against the inlet velocity, and discuss the results.
