Consider a normal shock wave in a supersonic airstream where the pressure upstream of the shock is 1 atm. Calculate the loss of total pressure across the shock wave when the upstream Mach number is (a) M1 = 2.5, and (b) M1 = 4.5. Compare these two results and comment on their implication
The pressure ratio across a normal shock wave in air is 4.5. What are the Mach numbers in front of and behind the wave? What are the density and temperature ratios across the wave?
