Shock Wave Propagation in a Two-Dimensional Flow Field

Shock Wave Propagation in a Two-Dimensional Flow Field [Pg.477]

The basic characteristics of a one-dimensional shock wave are described in Chapter 1 of this text. However, the shock waves in supersonic flow propagate not only one-dimensionally but also two- or three-dimensionally in space. For example, the shock waves formed at the air-intake of a ducted rocket are two- or three-dimensional in shape. Expansion waves are also formed in supersonic flow. The pressure downstream of an expansion wave is reduced and the flow velocity is increased. With reference to Chapter 1, brief descriptions of the characteristics of a two-dimensional shock wave and of an expansion wave are given here.Ii-5] [Pg.477]
