Mass Flux of an Ideal Gas

To calculate the maximum mass flux of an ideal gas, it is assumed that the gas is stored in a vessel. A valve is opened for pressure relief In the narrowest cross flow 

Integrating the ideal gas equation of state and the First Law (Eq. (C.276)), the maximum possible mass flux can be set up as
