  2. Inlet cone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inlet_cone

    An inlet cone, as part of an Oswatitsch-type inlet used on a supersonic aircraft or missile, is the 3D-surface on which supersonic ram compression for a gas turbine engine or ramjet combustor takes place through oblique shock waves. Slowing the air to low supersonic speeds using a cone minimizes loss in total pressure (increases pressure recovery).

  3. 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.

  4. 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]

  5. 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 ...

  6. Shock tube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock_tube

    An idealized shock tube. The plot shows different waves which are formed in the tube once the diaphragm is ruptured. The shock tube is an instrument used to replicate and direct blast waves at a sensor or a model in order to simulate actual explosions and their effects, usually on a smaller scale. Shock tubes (and related impulse facilities ...

  7. Rankine–Hugoniot conditions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rankine–Hugoniot_conditions

    A schematic diagram of a shock wave situation with the density , velocity , and temperature indicated for each region.. The Rankine–Hugoniot conditions, also referred to as Rankine–Hugoniot jump conditions or Rankine–Hugoniot relations, describe the relationship between the states on both sides of a shock wave or a combustion wave (deflagration or detonation) in a one-dimensional flow in ...

  8. Taylor–Maccoll flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taylor–Maccoll_flow

    A conical shock wave can form in this situation, with the vertex of the shock wave lying at the vertex of the solid cone. If it were a two-dimensional problem, i.e., for a supersonic flow past a wedge, then the incoming stream would have deflected through an angle χ {\displaystyle \chi } upon crossing the shock wave so that streamlines behind ...

  9. Rolls-Royce/Snecma Olympus 593 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolls-Royce/Snecma_Olympus_593

    The Rolls-Royce/Snecma Olympus 593 was an Anglo-French turbojet with reheat, which powered the supersonic airliner Concorde.It was initially a joint project between Bristol Siddeley Engines Limited (BSEL) and Snecma, derived from the Bristol Siddeley Olympus 22R engine.
