This 5 port component computes the mass flow in a polytropic convergent nozzle from the formula: \begin{equation} \dot m = A p_1 \sqrt{\frac{2n}{n-1}\frac{1}{RT_1} \left ( \frac{p_2}{p_1} \right )^\frac{2}{n} \left [ 1- \left ( \frac{p_2}{p_1} \right )^\frac{n-1}{n} \right ] } \end{equation} where: \begin{itemize} \item $n$ is the coefficient of polytropic expansion and \item $R$ is the universal gas constant. \end{itemize} If the expansion is isentropic \begin{equation} n=\gamma=\frac{c_p}{c_v} \end{equation} whre $c_p$ and $c_v$ are the spesicfic heats at constant pressure and volume. Typical values for air are \begin{equation} \begin{align} R &= 287 \text{Nm}\text{kg}^{-1}{K}^{-1}\\ \gamma &= 1.4 \end{align} \end{equation}
