An Introduction to Compressible Flow

Beschreibung

The book covers compressible flow material in gas turbine and aerodynamics courses. It begins with a review of thermodynamics and control volume fluid dynamics, then covers isentropic flow, normal shock waves, shock tubes, oblique shock waves, Prandtl-Meyer expansion fans, Fanno-line flow, Rayleigh-line flow, and conical shock waves.
