Find Mach number, total pressure loss, and entropy increase for the flow behind the shock wave when the airflow with Mach number is decelerated by a normal shock wave, respectively. Find the maximum angle of deflection of a diatomic molecule coming from upstream at Mach number M-S by the Prandtl-Meyer expansion.
An oblique shock wave with wave angle of 26° in an air stream in which the Mach number is 2.7, the pressure is 100 kPa, and the temperature is 30° impinges on a straight wall. Find the Mach number, pressure, temperature, and stagnation pressure downstream of the reflected wave.
