Normal Shock Table: P02/P01 & P1/P02 Meaning
Click For Summary
SUMMARY
The Normal Shock Table features two critical columns: the ratios P02/P01 and P1/P02. The ratio P02/P01 indicates the change in total pressure across the shock, serving as a measure of the shock's dissipative nature due to entropy gain. Conversely, the ratio P1/P02 is a useful parameter for various calculations related to shock wave dynamics.
