What is the entropy relation between the entry and exit of an actual diffuser?(a) s1 = s2(b) s1 > s2(c) s1 < s2(d) s1 s2 = 1The question was asked in an online quiz.I'm obligated to ask this question of Quasi-One-Dimensional Flow Diffusers in portion Quasi-One-Dimensional Flow of Aerodynamics

Answer»

The correct answer is (C) s1 < s2

The explanation is: The FLOW DIFFUSES to a slower velocity when the flow interacts with the oblique shock waves inside the diffuser. This causes the diffuser to have a normal shock wave at the end. The ENTROPY of the exit is therefore higher than the entropy of the inlet SEGMENT.
