Investigation to define the propagation characteristics of a finite amplitude acoustic pressure wave, phase 1 final report, 29 jun. 1964 - 29 jul. 1965

摘要

The contribution of high entropy production regions to the generation and propagation characteristics of a finite amplitude pressure is considered. Preliminary analysis indicates that, for nozzles where pressure rations are above critical, the predominant contribution may come from the shock layer formation in the exhaust region. Temperature effects indicate high dependence of the forcing function upon the initial temperature of the media.
