equation

Ignoring duct pressure losses, this will be the density at entry to the venturi (pressure p1).

If p2 at the throat is close to p1,

equation
equation

We should do a check now that the assumption of p2/p1 (=[101 − 0.4]/101 = 0.996) being close to 1 was OK. May also substitute in Equation 2.6 to check that the correct mass flow rate is obtained.
