Oblique Shock Analysis and Results

An oblique shock problem is given with air deflected at 45 degrees and a pre-shock Mach number of 3.3. The post-shock pressure is 124 psia, temperature is 1108°R (648°F), and Mach number is 1.742. The deflection angle is calculated to be 27.3 degrees, indicating a weak shock wave.

Equations and Computations:


The pre-shock Mach numbers normal and parallel to the wave are:
M 1n =
2.3335
2.3335
M 1t =
The sound speed upstream of the shock is:
c1 =
1160.30
ft/s
Therefore, the speed of the flow parallel to the wave is:
V 1t =
2707.51
ft/s
The post-shock Mach number normal to the wave is:
M 2n =
0.5305
The pressure and temperature ratios across the shock wave are:
p 2/p 1 =
6.1858
1.9777
T 2/T 1 =
Therefore, the post-shock temperature and pressure are:
p2 =
124
psia
1108
R
T2 =
648
F
T2 =
The sound speed downstream of the shock is:
c2 =
1631.74
ft/s
So the speed of the flow normal to wave is:
V 2n =
865.63
ft/s
The speed of the flow parallel to the wave is preserved through the shock:
V 2t =
2707.51
ft/s
Therefore the flow speed after the shock is:
V2 =
2842.52
ft/s
and the Mach number is:
M2 =
1.742
Based on the Mach number and shock angle, the deflection angle is:
=
27.3

Since the Mach number at 2 is supersonic, this is a weak wave. This can be
confirmed by inspecting Fig. 13.29 in the text.
