Computing the rate of mass flow dm/dt, we have
Thus,
or
For given/? , p , and AI we see dm /dt depends only on/? . When/? = 0, dm/dt is zero
and when/? = /? 1, dm/dt is also zero.
Figure 6.16 shows the curve of dm/dt versus/? //? , according to Eq. (6.29.6). It can be
easily established that (dm /dt) max occurs at
and at this pressure/? ,
