An aircraft cruises at a Mach number of 2.0 at an altitude of (15 mathrm{~km}). Inlet air

Question:

An aircraft cruises at a Mach number of 2.0 at an altitude of \(15 \mathrm{~km}\). Inlet air is decelerated to a Mach number of 0.4 at the engine compressor inlet. A normal shock occurs in the inlet diffuser upstream of the compressor inlet at a section where the Mach number is 1.2. For isentropic diffusion, except across the shock, and for standard atmosphere, determine the stagnation temperature and pressure of the air entering the engine compressor.
