  2. Shock diamond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock_diamond

    Shock diamonds are the bright areas seen in the exhaust of this statically mounted Pratt & Whitney J58 engine on full afterburner.. Shock diamonds (also known as Mach diamonds or thrust diamonds, and less commonly Mach disks) are a formation of standing wave patterns that appear in the supersonic exhaust plume of an aerospace propulsion system, such as a supersonic jet engine, rocket, ramjet ...

  3. Vapor cone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapor_cone

    A vapor cone (also known as a Mach diamond, [1] shock collar, or shock egg) is a visible cloud of condensed water that can sometimes form around an object moving at high speed through moist air, such as an aircraft flying at transonic speeds. When the localized air pressure around the object drops, so does the air temperature.

  4. Normal shock tables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_shock_tables

    In aerodynamics, the normal shock tables are a series of tabulated data listing the various properties before and after the occurrence of a normal shock wave. [1] With a given upstream Mach number , the post-shock Mach number can be calculated along with the pressure , density , temperature , and stagnation pressure ratios.

  5. Inlet cone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inlet_cone

    Inlet cones (sometimes called shock cones or inlet centerbodies [1]) are a component of some supersonic aircraft and missiles. They are primarily used on ramjets, such as the D-21 Tagboard and Lockheed X-7. Some turbojet aircraft including the Su-7, MiG-21, English Electric Lightning, and SR-71 also use an inlet cone.

    To begin using Dia, you first need to download the program and install it. If you are using Microsoft Windows you can download the Windows installer here. If you are using Linux, you download it from the repository that you normally use and install it as you install other software. Dia can also be installed in macOS for Macs.

  7. Shock metamorphism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock_metamorphism

    Shock metamorphism or impact metamorphism describes the effects of shock-wave related deformation and heating during impact events.. The formation of similar features during explosive volcanism is generally discounted due to the lack of metamorphic effects unequivocally associated with explosions and the difficulty in reaching sufficient pressures during such an event.

  8. MIL-S-901 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIL-S-901

    The shock responses of the associated principal unit and all associated subsidiary components are significantly affected by that of the subsidiary component. Examples are the diesel engine of a diesel-generator set, the electric motor of an air conditioning unit, or the power supply section of a radio transmitter. Type C. A type C test is a ...
