A jet engine is operating at an altitude of 7000 m. The mass of air passing through the engine is 46 kg/s and the heat addition in the combustion chamber is 500 kJ/kg. The cross-sectional area of the combustion chamber is 0.5 m2, and the air enters the chamber at a pressure of 80 kPa and a temperature of 80°C. After the combustion chamber, the products of combustion, which can be assumed to have the properties of air, are expanded...
