  2. Oblique shock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oblique_shock

    An oblique shock at the nose of a T-38 aircraft is made visible through Schlieren photography. An oblique shock wave is a shock wave that, unlike a normal shock, is inclined with respect to the direction of incoming air. It occurs when a supersonic flow encounters a corner that effectively turns the flow into itself and compresses. [1]

  3. Blast wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blast_wave

    Blast waves cause damage by a combination of the significant compression of the air in front of the wave (forming a shock front) and the subsequent wind that follows. [15] A blast wave travels faster than the speed of sound, and the passage of the shock wave usually lasts only a few milliseconds. Like other types of explosions, a blast wave can ...

  4. Shock wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock_wave

    In this case, the gas ahead of the shock is stationary (in the laboratory frame) and the gas behind the shock can be supersonic in the laboratory frame. The shock propagates with a wavefront which is normal (at right angles) to the direction of flow. The speed of the shock is a function of the original pressure ratio between the two bodies of gas.

  5. Shock tube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock_tube

    More recently, laboratory scale shock tubes driven by fuel-air mixtures have been developed that produce realistic blast waves and can be operated in more ordinary laboratory facilities. [8] Because the molar volume of gas is much less, the jet effect is a fraction of that for compressed-gas driven shock tubes.

  8. Ludwieg tube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ludwieg_tube

    Ludwieg tube installation with a dump tank (left), nozzle and test section (center) and expansion tube (right) A Ludwieg tube is a cheap and efficient way of producing supersonic flow. Mach numbers up to 4 in air are easily obtained without any additional heating of the flow. With heating, Mach numbers of up to 11 can be reached.
