served that the solution (to a weak shock) occurs and has a weaker discon-
tinuity, with a remainder of 1

lines 1

M and
max
T
). That is, two solutions are derived from the jump
conditions, which are in effect characterized by different shock inclinations
angles and shock intensities. The solutions are known as the weak and
strong solutions. Phenomenologically the strong solution indicates a flow
which is subsonic downstream from the shock with

rical slender wedge,
1

gle of

be calculated from Eq. (5.5.9).

It is interesting to see the flow phenomena if
T
is greater than
4ʌ
. It
appears that neither an oblique shock nor a normal shock is possible and it
is observed from experiment that the shock becomes detached. That is to
say, the shock curves around the wedge are not touching the wedge, as
schematically displayed in Fig. 5.13. The phenomenon also occurs with a
blunt body. There are some regions after the curved shock wave, called the
bow shock, as shown in Fig. 5.13. The dotted line, which corresponds to
254
Exercise

M
, is called the sonic line and divides the two regions of supersonic
and subsonic flow. It is found that the drag on a blunt body (or higher de-
flection angled wedge) is higher than that of a slender body when the body
is traveling with supersonic speed. This is due to the shock wave being de-
tached, and to reduce the drag it is advantageous to adopt a small nose an-
gle (wedge angle) for supersonic crafts so that the oblique shock may be
formed on the body.
Exercise
Exercise 5.1 The Compressibility Factor
In an isentropic flow through a channel from a reservoir, the pressure in
the reservoir is such that the velocity of flow is identically zero
In con-
trast to the reservoir, when an isotropic flow is brought to rest at any point
of a flow field, the pressure with zero velocity can be obtained with the
same treatment as the case of a reservoir. The stagnation pressure is such
that a flow is brought to rest. We will now consider the stagnation pressure
0
p
for an isentropic flow in terms of the Mach number.

The typical application of such a flow is found by measuring its velocity
via the Pitot tube, as depicted in Fig. 5.14(a) and (b). Show the effect of
Mach number in measuring the stagnation pressure, and thus the velocity
of flow for an ideal gas.
Ans.
Let consider the energy equation of Eq. (5.2.13) between the upstream

Exercise 5.2 Fanno-line Flow Relations and Chocking
Consider a flow of ideal gas in a horizontal tube of constant cross-section.
The flow in the tube is assumed adiabatic, but with friction, i.e. the exis-
tence of wall shear stress. Derive Fanno-line flow relations and discuss the
possibility of chocking condition.
Ans.
Let denote A as the cross-section area and dx as a small increment of
x
as indicated in Fig. 5.15, where the control volume is defined by dotted
line together with flow and thermodynamic parameters. For the control
volume, we will apply (i) the mass continuity, (ii) the momentum and (iii)
the energy equations as described below.

It should be kept in mind that, as in Eqs. (1) to (7), there is no particular
thermodynamic process mentioned for the control volume, but with the
adiabatic condition to the control volume being assumed, we can assume
there is no heat transfer to or from the control volume.

number whether the flow is subsonic or supersonic. Table 5.1 shows the
summarized results. As seen in Table 5.1, for subsonic flow ( 1
M
), when
the Mach number increases, the change of the Mach number along the tube
will be
0!dxdM from Eq. (15), implying the fact that the effective cross
section area decreases. This effect concerns the effective increase of the
thickness of the boundary layer, since the flow includes the effect of vis-
cosity.
From Table 5.1, we also see that the frictional effects cause the fluid to
tend toward 1
M
for both initially subsonic and supersonic conditions.

5 Compressible Flow
This fact indicates, if a tube length is sufficiently long enough, that the
flow is choked off due to the friction. We may be able to integrate Eqs.
(11)~(15) between a reference point of flow to a point where the flow
reaches the Mach number, as schematically depicted in Fig. 5.16. For ex-
ample, if we integrate Eq. (15), we obtain
