Beginning with a brief review of the foundation concepts of fluid dynamics and thermodynamics and an introduction to the concepts of compressible flow, this volume treats one-dimensional gas dynamics, including flow in nozzles and diffusers, normal shocks, frictional flows and flows with heat transfer or energy release; the differential equations governing the two- and three-dimensional motion of a nonviscous compressible fluid; analytical methods and experimental results for subsonic, two- and three-dimensional flows; two-dimensional supersonic flows from the theoretical and practical points of view; and, in Appendices, the theory of characteristic curves and sets of numerical tables of compressible-flow functions.
