The exit temperature of the air is

  • A.516 K
  • B.532 K
  • C.484 K
  • D.468 K

Answer: C

The exit temperature is about 484 K.

For an adiabatic nozzle with no work, the stagnation enthalpy is constant:

\[ \begin{aligned} T_{2} &= T_{1}+\frac{V_{1}^{2}-V_{2}^{2}}{2c_{p}} \\ &= 500+\frac{10^{2}-180^{2}}{2 \times 1008} \\ &= 500-16.0 = 484\ \text{K} \end{aligned} \]

The air speeds up, so its temperature must fall: 516 K and 532 K have the kinetic energy term with the wrong sign. 468 K doubles the drop.
