in a wind tunnel and equipped with a throttle valve by which the downstream
static pressure p: might be varied. Suppose that the inlet is designed for a
Mach number M-3.0 and that with this flight Mach number the shock has
been swallowed and an internal shock exists, as at. Neglecting all losses
except those occurring in the shock, calculate and plot the shock Mach num-
ber M, and the stagnation pressure ratio Puz/pa. as a function of the static
pressure ratio p/p. (for y=1.4). Let p/p. range from unity to well beyond
that value which disgorges the shock.
