Pressure immediately behind the shock wave Calculator

The pressure immediately behind a shock wave, denoted as p2​, refers to the pressure of a fluid right after it has passed through the shock wave. In the context of shock waves, p2​ represents the pressure on the side of the shock wave where the fluid has undergone a rapid and significant increase in pressure […]

Total temperature Calculator

Total temperature (T0​), also known as stagnation temperature or total temperature at stagnation, is a thermodynamic concept used in fluid dynamics to describe the temperature of a fluid flow when both its internal energy and kinetic energy are taken into account. It represents the maximum temperature that a fluid could attain if it is brought

Temperature downstream of the shock wave Calculator

The temperature downstream of a shock wave refers to the temperature of a fluid after it has passed through the shock wave. A shock wave is a rapid and abrupt change in the thermodynamic properties of a fluid, including pressure, temperature, and density, that occurs when the fluid travels at a speed greater than the

Moment per unit span about the aerodynamic center Calculator

The moment per unit span about the aerodynamic center (M’ac) is a measure of the twisting or rotational effect experienced by an airfoil or wing section due to aerodynamic forces. It quantifies the moment (torque) exerted around a specified axis per unit span length of the wing or airfoil. The concept of Mac′​ is fundamental

Power required in the test section Calculator

Pt​ is the power associated with the fluid flow in the test section. It represents the rate at which energy is transferred or converted within the flow. The power required in the test section (Pt​) refers to the amount of energy that needs to be supplied or consumed to drive the fluid flow within a

Total pressure with fluid velocity Calculator

Total pressure, often denoted a p0​, is a concept used in fluid dynamics to describe the combination of static pressure and dynamic pressure at a specific point within a flowing fluid. It represents the sum of the pressures associated with both the fluid’s velocity and its thermodynamic properties. Total pressure is an important parameter when

Total pressure Calculator

Total pressure (p01​) at a specific point in a fluid flow. This equation is based on the Bernoulli’s principle, which describes the relationship between pressure, velocity, and elevation in a fluid flowing along a streamline.    p01​ is the total pressure at a specific point, which includes both the static pressure (p1​) and the dynamic
