💥 Mach Cone and Oblique Shock Angle: Supersonic Source and Wedge (2D)
Top: a source moving faster than sound leaves a train of wave fronts whose envelope is the Mach cone. Bottom: supersonic flow turned by a wedge forms an oblique shock. Set Mach number, air temperature and turning angle, and read the Mach angle, shock angle, pressure, density and temperature ratios and downstream Mach number, with four in-page numerical checks of the shock relations.
