  2. Self-similar solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-similar_solution

    The early identification of self-similar solutions of the second kind can be found in problems of imploding shock waves (Guderley–Landau–Stanyukovich problem), analyzed by G. Guderley (1942) and Lev Landau and K. P. Stanyukovich (1944), [3] and propagation of shock waves by a short impulse, analysed by Carl Friedrich von Weizsäcker [4] and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock-capturing_method

    In computational fluid dynamics, shock-capturing methods are a class of techniques for computing inviscid flows with shock waves.The computation of flow containing shock waves is an extremely difficult task because such flows result in sharp, discontinuous changes in flow variables such as pressure, temperature, density, and velocity across the shock.

    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 ...

  5. Isentropic expansion waves - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isentropic_expansion_waves

    Expansion waves are divergent because as the flow expands the value of Mach number increases, thereby decreasing the Mach angle. In an isentropic wave, the speed changes from v to v + dv, with deflection dθ. We have oriented the coordinate system orthogonal to the wave.

  6. Shock (fluid dynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock_(fluid_dynamics)

    Shock is formed due to coalescence of various small pressure pulses. Sound waves are pressure waves and it is at the speed of the sound wave the disturbances are communicated in the medium. When an object is moving in a flow field the object sends out disturbances which propagate at the speed of sound and adjusts the remaining flow field ...
