We will start with converting the integral equation for conservation of mass for one-dimensional flows to differential form.\\

\noindent which means that the maximum temperature will be reached when the Mach number is $\sqrt{1/\gamma}$. Since $\gamma$ is a number grreter than one for all gases, this implies that the maximum temperature can only be reached if the flow is subsonic.

\noindent Now, by specifying an initial subsonic flow state and dividing the heat addition corresponding to choked flow, $q^\ast$, into small portions $\delta q$, one can perform integration as indicated in Figure~\ref{fig:dq}. The result is presented in the in Figure~\ref{fig:TS:closeup}. The subsonic process corresponds to the upper line. As heat is added the Mach number is increased and at $M=\gamma^{-1/2}$ the maximum temperature is reached. Adding more heat will reduce the temperature and increase the Mach number until sonic conditions are reached ($M=1.0$). As can be seen in Figure~\ref{fig:TS:closeup}, the lean of the subsonic branch of the Rayleigh line is lower than the isobars (gray lines), which means the increasing heat will reduce pressure. The lower part of the blue line in Figure~\ref{fig:TS:closeup} is the supersonic branch of the Rayleigh line, which is obtained in the same way starting from a supersonic flow condition. A flow state resulting in the same sonic conditions as for the subsonic case is calculated and used as a starting state. The corresponding $q^\ast$ is calculated and the same calculation of consecutive flow states in a step-wise manner is performed. As can be seen in Figure~\ref{fig:TS:closeup}, the lean of the supersonic part of the Rayleigh curve is steeper than the isobars (gray lines), which means that pressure increases as heat is added to the flow. As we saw from Eqn.~\ref{eq:governing:dT:diff:mod:b}, $dT/dT_o$ becomes infinite when the flow approaches the sonic the sonic state. After the sonic state is reached, further heat addition is impossible without changing the upstream flow conditions. This will be made clearer in the next section.\\

As can be seen in Figure~\ref{fig:TS:closeup}, the lean of the supersonic part of the Rayleigh curve is steeper than the isobars (gray lines), which means that pressure increases as heat is added to the flow. As we saw from Eqn.~\ref{eq:governing:dT:diff:mod:b}, <math>dT/dT_o</math> becomes infinite when the flow approaches the sonic the sonic state. After the sonic state is reached, further heat addition is impossible without changing the upstream flow conditions. This will be made clearer in the next section.


\noindent Using the differential relations above, we can get a good picture of the development of flow variables as heat is continuously added to the flow (see Figure~\ref{fig:rayleigh:trends}).

\noindent Eqn.~\ref{eq:governing:mom:b} tells us that any solution to the governing flow equations must lie along a line (a so-called Rayleigh line) in a $p\nu$-diagram. In Figure~\ref{fig:PV}, 1 corresponds to the flow state before heat addition and states 2 and 3 corresponds to the flow state after heat is added. If the flow in state 1 is subsonic, adding heat will change the flow state following the Rayleigh line to the right, i.e. towards flow state 2. If the initial flow state instead is supersonic, heat addition will move the flow state towards state 3.\\

Now we know in which direction we will move along the Rayleigh curve when heat is added but in order to find the flow state after heat addition we need to add the energy equation to the problem. If we draw a curve corresponding to the energy equation including the heat addition in the same <math>p\nu</math>-diagram, the intersection of this curve and the Rayleigh line corresponds to the downstream flow state (the flow state that fulfils the continuity, momentum, and energy equations). To be able to do this we will rewrite the energy equation such that it can be represented by a line in the <math>p\nu</math>-diagram.

\subsection{Thermal Choking}
==== Thermal Choking ====


\noindent When the heat addition reaches $q^\ast$ the flow becomes sonic and the flow is said to thermally choked. Thermal choking is illustrated in Figure~\ref{fig:TSPV:d}, where the curve representing the energy equation (the blue line in the $p\nu$-diagram) is tangent to the Rayleigh line and if more heat is added the blue line will move to the right of the Rayleigh line and thus there are no solutions for $q>q^\ast$. So what happens if more heat is added to the flow after thermal choking is reached. The answer is different if the flow is subsonic or supersonic. For a subsonic flow, the upstream flow will be adjusted such that the slope of the Rayleigh line changes and the energy equation curve becomes tangent to the Rayleigh line. This means that the massflow per unit area ($C$) is reduced and $q^\ast$ is increased such that $q^\ast$ equals the heat added to the flow. Note that the upstream total conditions will not be changed in this process (see Figure~\ref{fig:thermal:choking:sub}).

Flow-station relations

The aim is to derive relations for pressure ratio and temperature ratio as a function of Mach numbers. We will do that starting from the momentum equation.

p2p1=ρ1u12ρ2u22(Eq. 3.71)

Assuming calorically perfect gas

ρu2=ρa2M2=ργpρM2=γpM2(Eq. 3.72)

which inserted in Eqn. \ref{eq:governing:mom} gives

p2p1=γp1M12γp2M22(Eq. 3.73)
p2(1+γM22)=p1(1+γM12)(Eq. 3.74)

and thus

p2p1=1+γM121+γM22(Eq. 3.75)

From the equation of state p=ρRT, we get

T2T1=p2ρ2Rρ1Rp1=p2p1ρ1ρ2(Eq. 3.76)

Using the continuity equation, we can get ρ1/ρ2

ρ1u1=ρ2u2ρ1ρ2=u2u1(Eq. 3.77)

Inserted in Eqn. \ref{eq:tr:a} gives

T2T1=p2p1u2u1(Eq. 3.78)
u2u1=M2a2M1a1=M2M1γRT2γRT1=M2M1T2T1(Eq. 3.79)

Eqn. \ref{eq:tr:c} in Eqn. \ref{eq:tr:b} gives

T2T1=p2p1M2M1(Eq. 3.80)

With p2/p1 from Eqn. \ref{eq:governing:mom:b}, Eqn \ref{eq:tr:d} becomes

T2T1=(1+γM121+γM22)2(M2M1)2(Eq. 3.81)

Differential Relations

The equations presented in the previous section gives us the flow state after heat addition but since the heat addition, unlike the normal shock, is a continuous process, it is of interest to study the the heat addition from start to end. In order to do so we will now derive differential relations starting from the governing equations on differential form. We will start with converting the integral equation for conservation of mass for one-dimensional flows to differential form.

ρ1u1=ρ2u2=constd(ρu)=0(Eq. 3.82)
d(ρu)=ρdu+udρ=0(Eq. 3.83)

Divide by ρu gives

dρρ=duu(Eq. 3.84)

The integral form of the conservation of momentum equation for one-dimensional flows is converted to differential form as follows.

p1+ρ1u12=p2+ρ2u22=constd(p+ρu2)=0(Eq. 3.85)
dp+ρudu+ud(ρu)=0=0dp=ρudu(Eq. 3.86)

with ρ=pRT and u2=M2a2=M2γRT in Eqn.~\ref{eq:governing:mom:diff:b}, we get

dp=pRTu2duu=pRTM2γRTduu(Eq. 3.87)
dpp=γM2duu(Eq. 3.88)

which gives the relative change in pressure, dp/p, as a function of the relative change in flow velocity, du/u. The next equation to derive is an equation that describes the relative change in temperature, dT/T, as a function of the relative change in flow velocity, du/u. The starting point is the equation of state (the gas law).

p=ρRTdp=R(ρdT+Tdρ)dT=1RρdpTρdρ(Eq. 3.89)

Divide by T

dTT=1ρRTdp1ρdρ(Eq. 3.90)

substitute dp from Eqn.~\ref{eq:governing:mom:diff:c} and dρ from Eqn.~\ref{eq:governing:cont:diff:b} gives

dTT=(1γM2)duu(Eq. 3.91)

The entropy equation reads

ds=CvdppCpdρρ(Eq. 3.92)

which after substituting dp from Eqn.~\ref{eq:governing:mom:diff:c} and dρ from Eqn.~\ref{eq:governing:cont:diff:b} becomes

ds=Cvγ(1M2)duu(Eq. 3.93)

From the definition of total temperature To we get


To=T+u22CpdTo=dT+1Cpudu=dT+γ1γRTTu2duu(Eq. 3.94)
dTo=dT+(γ1)M2Tduu(Eq. 3.95)

Inserting dT from Eqn~\ref{eq:governing:temp:diff:c} in Eqn~\ref{eq:governing:To:diff:a} we get

dTo=(1γM2)Tduu+(γ1)M2Tduu(Eq. 3.96)

or

dTo=(1M2)Tduu(Eq. 3.97)

Dividing Eqn.~\ref{eq:governing:To:diff:b} by To and using

To=T(1+γ12M2)(Eq. 3.98)

we get

dToTo=1M21+γ12M2duu(Eq. 3.99)

Finally, we will derive a differential relation that describes the change in Mach number.

M=uγRTdM=1γR(T1/2du+ud(T1/2))=duγRTu2γRT3/2dT(Eq. 3.100)
dM=1γRTduu12uγRTdTT=MduuM2dTT(Eq. 3.101)

Inserting dT/T from Eqn.~\ref{eq:governing:temp:diff:c}, we get

dMM=1+γM22duu(Eq. 3.102)

All the derived differential relations are expressed as functions of <math<du/u</math> but it would be more convenient to relate the changes in flow properties to the added heat or the change in total temperature, which can be related to the added heat through the energy equation.

dTo=δqCp(Eq. 3.103)

From Eqn.~\ref{eq:governing:To:diff:c}, we get

duu=(1+γ12M21M2)dToTo(Eq. 3.104)

Now, we can substitute $du/u$ in all the above relations using Eqn.~\ref{eq:governing:du:diff:final}, we get the following relations

dρρ=(1+γ12M21M2)dToTo(Eq. 3.105)
dpp=γM2(1+γ12M21M2)dToTo(Eq. 3.106)
dTT=(1γM2)(1+γ12M21M2)dToTo(Eq. 3.107)
dTT=(1+γM22)(1+γ12M21M2)dToTo(Eq. 3.108)
dTT=Cvγ(1+γ12M2)dToTo(Eq. 3.109)

Heat Addition Process

With the differential relations in place, we can now study the continuous change in flow quantities from the initial flow state to the flow state after the heat addition process by dividing the total amount of heat added to the flow, q, into small portions, δq, and calculate the change in flow properties for each of these heat additions, see Figure~\ref{fig:dq}.


Let's first examine the temperature change by rewriting Eqn.~\ref{eq:governing:dT:diff:final} as

dT=1γM21M2dTodTdTo=1γM21M2(Eq. 3.110)

which is equivalent to

dhδq=1γM21M2(Eq. 3.111)

Form Eqn.~\ref{eq:governing:dT:diff:mod:a} we can make the following observation

dTdTo=0γM2=1M=1/γ(Eq. 3.112)

which means that the maximum temperature will be reached when the Mach number is 1/γ. Since γ is a number greater than one for all gases, this implies that the maximum temperature can only be reached if the flow is subsonic. For air, this the maximum temperature will be reached at M=0.845.

If we evaluate Eqn.~\ref{eq:governing:dT:diff:mod:a} for sonic flow (M=1), we see that the derivative becomes infinite.

|M|1.0dTdTo±(Eq. 3.113)

Now, by specifying an initial subsonic flow state and dividing the heat addition corresponding to choked flow, q, into small portions δq, one can perform integration as indicated in Figure~\ref{fig:dq}. The result is presented in the in Figure~\ref{fig:TS:closeup}. The subsonic process corresponds to the upper line. As heat is added the Mach number is increased and at M=γ1/2 the maximum temperature is reached. Adding more heat will reduce the temperature and increase the Mach number until sonic conditions are reached (M=1.0). As can be seen in Figure~\ref{fig:TS:closeup}, the lean of the subsonic branch of the Rayleigh line is lower than the isobars (gray lines), which means the increasing heat will reduce pressure. The lower part of the blue line in Figure~\ref{fig:TS:closeup} is the supersonic branch of the Rayleigh line, which is obtained in the same way starting from a supersonic flow condition. A flow state resulting in the same sonic conditions as for the subsonic case is calculated and used as a starting state. The corresponding $q^\ast$ is calculated and the same calculation of consecutive flow states in a step-wise manner is performed. As can be seen in Figure~\ref{fig:TS:closeup}, the lean of the supersonic part of the Rayleigh curve is steeper than the isobars (gray lines), which means that pressure increases as heat is added to the flow. As we saw from Eqn.~\ref{eq:governing:dT:diff:mod:b}, dT/dTo becomes infinite when the flow approaches the sonic the sonic state. After the sonic state is reached, further heat addition is impossible without changing the upstream flow conditions. This will be made clearer in the next section.

Using the differential relations above, we can get a good picture of the development of flow variables as heat is continuously added to the flow (see Figure~\ref{fig:rayleigh:trends}).


Rayleigh Line

The continuity equation for steady-state, one-dimensional flow reads

ρ1u1=ρ2u2=C(Eq. 3.114)

where C is the massflow per square meter (massflow divided by area). Inserted in the momentum equation we get

p1+C2ρ1=p2+C2ρ2p1+ν1C2=p2+ν2C2p2p1ν2ν1=C2(Eq. 3.115)

Eqn.~\ref{eq:governing:mom:b} tells us that any solution to the governing flow equations must lie along a line (a so-called Rayleigh line) in a pν-diagram. In Figure~\ref{fig:PV}, 1 corresponds to the flow state before heat addition and states 2 and 3 corresponds to the flow state after heat is added. If the flow in state 1 is subsonic, adding heat will change the flow state following the Rayleigh line to the right, i.e. towards flow state 2. If the initial flow state instead is supersonic, heat addition will move the flow state towards state 3.


Now we know in which direction we will move along the Rayleigh curve when heat is added but in order to find the flow state after heat addition we need to add the energy equation to the problem. If we draw a curve corresponding to the energy equation including the heat addition in the same pν-diagram, the intersection of this curve and the Rayleigh line corresponds to the downstream flow state (the flow state that fulfils the continuity, momentum, and energy equations). To be able to do this we will rewrite the energy equation such that it can be represented by a line in the pν-diagram.


The energy equation for one-dimensional flow with heat addition reads

h1+12u12+q=h2+12u22(Eq. 3.116)

Inserting the constant C from above (the massflow per m2) and and and h=CpT, we get

γRγ1T1+12C2ν12+q=γRγ1+12C2ν22(Eq. 3.117)

which may be rewritten as

p2p1=(ν2ν1γ+1γ12qRT1)(1γ+1γ1ν2ν1)1(Eq. 3.118)



As you can see in the examples above (Figures~\ref{fig:TSPV:b} and \ref{fig:TSPV:d}), sonic conditions are reached when the Rayleigh line is tangent to the curve representing the energy equation in the pν-diagram. Adding more heat would move the energy equation line upwards and thus there can not be any solution after reaching this state unless the upstream conditions are changed such that the energy line intersects the Rayleigh line after further heat addition. Let's have a second look at the equations and see if it is possible to verify that the case where the Rayleigh line is a tangent to the energy-equation curve is in fact the sonic state.

Starting from Eqn.~\ref{eq:governing:energy:b}, it is easy to see that for any point along the energy equation curve the flow state may be expressed as a function of the initial flow state and the added heat q as

γγ1pν+12C2ν2=γγ1p1ν1+12C2ν12+q=D(Eq. 3.119)

where D is a constant.

Now, let's different the Eqn.\ref{eq:governing:energy:d} with respect to ν

γγ1(νdpdν+p)+C2ν=0dpdν=γγ1C2pν(Eq. 3.120)

The Rayleigh line is a tangent to the energy equation curve when dp/dν=C2 and thus

C2γ=pν(Eq. 3.121)

By definition C=ρu and ν=1/ρ, which inserted in Eqn.~\ref{eq:governing:energy:f} gives

u=γpρ=a(Eq. 3.122)

Thermal Choking

When the heat addition reaches $q^\ast$ the flow becomes sonic and the flow is said to thermally choked. Thermal choking is illustrated in Figure~\ref{fig:TSPV:d}, where the curve representing the energy equation (the blue line in the pν-diagram) is tangent to the Rayleigh line and if more heat is added the blue line will move to the right of the Rayleigh line and thus there are no solutions for q>q. So what happens if more heat is added to the flow after thermal choking is reached. The answer is different if the flow is subsonic or supersonic. For a subsonic flow, the upstream flow will be adjusted such that the slope of the Rayleigh line changes and the energy equation curve becomes tangent to the Rayleigh line. This means that the massflow per unit area (C) is reduced and q is increased such that q equals the heat added to the flow. Note that the upstream total conditions will not be changed in this process (see Figure~\ref{fig:thermal:choking:sub}).

M1=f(q)

T1=f(To, M1)

p1=f(po, M1)

ρ1=f(p1, T1)

a1=f(T1)

u1=M1a1


In a choked supersonic flow, there is no possibility for pressure waves to travel upstream in the flow and thus the upstream flow conditions can not be changed as in the subsonic case. Moreover, since a normal shock is an adiabatic process (a jump between two points on the same Rayleigh line), the total temperature is not changed over a chock. From before we have

ToTo=(γ+1)M12(1+γM12)2(2+(γ1)M12)(Eq. 3.123)

Inserting the normal shock relation

M22=2+(γ1)M122γM12(γ1)(Eq. 3.124)

one can show that

ToTo=(γ+1)M22(1+γM22)2(2+(γ1)M22)(Eq. 3.125)

and thus To is not changed by the normal shock and consequently q is unchanged if there is a normal shock between station 1 and 2. So, it is not possible to change the upstream static flow conditions and a normal shock will not make it possible to add more heat. The only possible solution is a normal shock upstream of station 1 and thus subsonic flow through the heat addition process.
