Sound Wave:
nothing more than an Infinitely weak normal shock wave
Flow through is Isentropic (Adiabatic and Reversible)
Speed of Sound in a Calorically
Perfect Gas
W/ Total condition:
W/ Sonic condition:
Special Forms of Energy Equation
Total-Sonic Relation
Total-to-Static ratios
Sonic-to-Total ratios
If k = 1.4:
Characteristic Mach #
In theory of supersonic flow, this is sometimes convenient to
introduce
“a*” not to be confused w/ the actual local mach #; speed of
sound at sonic conditions
just like the stagnation properties
imaginary situation when a real state in the flow is brought to
sonic state
maximum value of Mach # it can attain in a choked nozzle
flow
Characteristic Mach #
