Ideal-Gas Tables for Oblique-Shock Flow Parameters in Air at Mach Numbers from 1.05 to 12.0

Abstract

Oblique-shock tables are presented for air with initial Mach numbers from 1.05 to 12.0 and flow-deflection angles from 0 degrees up to the maximum turning angle for attached flow. Parameters presented are flow-deflection angle, shock-wave angle, total-pressure ratio, static-pressure, density, and temperature ratios, downstream Mach number, ratio of downstream velocity to maximum velocity, and increase in entropy. Perfect-gas equations have been used throughout these calculations.
