It is a high energy region, under high pressure as far as I was aware.

Is the actual shockwave itself not a physical pile up of particles that can no longer pass all their energy into the particles when they bump into them?

Along the shockwave itself, (very thin region) the pressure is high so I mean I want the fuel to flow in then explode when it hits this high pressure region and generate thrust, might be a crazy unfeasible idea but that is what I am trying to figure out XD?

You don't think that having the actual shock itself ignited is possible?

Hi thanks for the replies, I am aware that shocks from where M>1 and I am also aware that Bernoulli's is only applicable to non-compressible flow and I am aware that stagnation pressure changes across shocks. I did not post a question to physics forums to find answers that are readily available...

I'm not what level of detail you want to work to. However the Javafoil tool is invaluable in aerofoil down selection. http://www.mh-aerotools.de/airfoils/javafoil.htm Martin Simons Model Aircraft Aerodynamics is a balanced source, not too complex yet not too simplistic in my opinion. As...

Hi, Generally speaking when designing an aircraft even at the conceptual phase an engineer will have a good "rough idea" of the weight of the aircraft. This is found by looking at historic aircraft data. Generally most modern aircraft will have a similar predecessor which has already been...

Hi, I am working on investigating an idea I proposed regarding a ramjet that operates in subsonic flow (of a fixed speed) with a convergent intake. That utilizes the pressure immediately behind a standing shock-wave for compression. I have posted a link to my initial report here and I now need...
