Dynamic pressure for wedge simplified Calculator

In the context of a wedge in aerodynamics, dynamic pressure () is a measure of the kinetic energy per unit volume of the fluid flowing around the wedge shape. It represents the pressure increase that would occur if the fluid were brought to a complete stop, converting all of its kinetic energy into pressure energy. 

  • Dynamic pressure (q1) in N/m^2
  • Specific heat ratio (γ)
  • Freestream static pressure (p1) in N/m^2
  • Mach number of wedge (M1)
