Mach number behind the reflected wave Calculator

The Mach number behind the reflected wave, often denoted as , represents the speed of the flow relative to the local speed of sound in the region behind a reflected shock wave. It quantifies the velocity of the flow in relation to the speed at which pressure disturbances propagate through the fluid. 

  • Mach number behind the reflected wave (M3)
  • Normal component of Mach number behind the reflected wave (Mn,3)
  • Angle between the reflected shock and the direction of the flow in region 2 (𝛽2) in rad
  • Deflection angle (θ) in rad
