8.8 The absolute flow angle at the inlet of a stator blade in a compressor is , = 45, as shown. The absolute total pres. sure and temperature in station 2 are Pt2 = 150 kPa and T2 = 300 K, respectively. The total pressure loss coefficient for this section of the the stator blade is w, = 0.02. Assuming the axial velocity remains constant and gas properties are = 1.4 and c, = 1.004 kJ/kg : K, calculate
(a) entrance Mach number M, (b) exit total pressure P3 (c) exit Mach number M, (d) static pressure rise, p = P3 - P2
