Compressible flow
Abstract
The Navier-Stokes, energy, and continuity equations are derived in three-dimensional, time-dependent form, and the results are applied to the treatment of one- and two-dimensional, steady and unsteady, subsonic, supersonic, and transonic flow of a perfect gas. Departures from the perfect gas theory are discussed in chapters on laminar boundary layers, turbulent boundary layers, and real gas effects. The work concludes with a review of numerical analysis and the application of numerical methods to compressible flow. Experimental results are provided as a check on the theoretical predictions.
