Throughout hum air ke saath use karte hain jab tak koi problem aur na kahe. Yahan complete toolkit hai jise tum reach karoge — har symbol parent note mein build kiya gaya tha, lekin chaliye unhe plain words mein restate karte hain taaki kuch bhi assumed na ho:

Figure dekho: har ratio ek curve hai jo par 1 se upar jaati hai. Pressure aur temperature infinity ki taraf bhaagti hai; density apni ceiling par flatten ho jaati hai; downstream Mach number apne floor ki taraf sagg karta hai. Yeh picture mind mein rakho — yeh tumhe turant bata deta hai ki koi answer plausible hai ya nahi.
Level 1 — Recognition
L1.1
Batao ki har quantity normal shock ke across badhti hai, girti hai, ya same rehti hai, aur physical reason bhi do: (i) static pressure , (ii) total temperature , (iii) total pressure , (iv) Mach number , (v) entropy .
Recall Solution
- (i) badhta hai — shock ek compression ki wall hai.
- (ii) same rehta hai — adiabatic, koi work nahi ⇒ total enthalpy conserved ⇒ constant.
- (iii) girta hai — shock irreversible hai, entropy badhti hai, isliye .
- (iv) girta hai (supersonic → subsonic).
- (v) badhta hai — Second Law; yahi reason hai ki sirf compression shocks exist karte hain.
L1.2
Air () ke liye (ek infinitely weak shock), compute karo , , , aur . Kya notice karte ho?
Recall Solution
plug karo:
- .
- .
- .
- . Notice karo: par har ratio exactly 1 hai — koi shock hai hi nahi. Shock tabhi kuch karta hai jab ho. Yeh figure ke saare curves ka anchor point hai.
Level 2 — Application
L2.1
Air ek normal shock mein pe enter karta hai. , , , aur find karo.
Recall Solution
, ke saath:
- .
- .
- .
- . Sanity: ✓, saare ratios se zyaada hain ✓ (curves pe upar ki taraf steeper).
L2.2
Upstream conditions hain , , . Actual downstream static pressure aur temperature find karo (sirf ratios nahi).
Recall Solution
ke saath:
- .
- .
- .
Level 3 — Analysis
L3.1
Air ke liye, upstream Mach number find karo jo static pressure ratio produce karta hai. (Relation 3 ko invert karo.)
Recall Solution
Set karo . ke liye solve karne ke liye rearrange karo — kyun algebra, guessing nahi? Relation 3 mein linear hai, isliye cleanly invert hoti hai: Toh . (Parent note ke worked example (a) se consistent hai.)
L3.2
Air mein par ek normal shock hai. Entropy rise (J kg⁻¹K⁻¹) aur total-pressure ratio compute karo.
Recall Solution
Example (a) se: , . Yeh mein kyun enter karte hain? Ek perfect gas ka entropy change sirf aur ke do end-state ratios par depend karta hai:
- : .
- .
- ✓ (shock allowed hai).
- . Toh flow apna lagbhag total pressure lose kar deta hai. Compare karo Stagnation properties se.
Level 4 — Synthesis
L4.1
Ek aircraft par fly karta hai jahan ambient air hai. Ek pitot probe ke saamne ek normal shock khada hai. Find karo (i) shock ke bilkul peeche temperature , aur (ii) stagnation temperature jo probe read karta hai. Kya woh same hain? Explain karo.
Recall Solution
(i) L2.1 se, , toh . (ii) Stagnation temperature isentropic formula use karta hai (Isentropic flow relations), aur kyunki shock ke across conserved hai hum ise upstream se evaluate kar sakte hain: Same nahi hain. K woh static temperature hai jo shock ke bilkul peeche hai, jahan flow abhi bhi par move kar rahi hai. Probe us residual motion ko rest pe laata hai, kinetic energy ka aakhiri hissa add karke K tak pahunchta hai. Kyunki dono sides par same hai, hum ise state 2 se bhi compute kar sakte the — check karo: K ✓.
L4.2
Usi shock ke liye air mein, upstream total pressure hai. Shock ke peeche read hone wala total pressure find karo. (Yahi exactly hai jo ek supersonic pitot correction handle karta hai.)
Recall Solution
Pehle L2.1 ratios se (, ):
- .
- .
- .
- .
- . Shock jitna strong, utna zyaada total pressure destroy hota hai — par hum sirf lagbhag ek third bachate hain.
Level 5 — Mastery
L5.1 (Strong-shock limit)
Prove karo ki (air) par aur . Phir dono ko numerically par evaluate karo aur comment karo ki limits kitne close hain.
Recall Solution
Density limit. se kyun divide karein? Dominant terms expose karne ke liye: Mach limit. ke top aur bottom ko se divide karo: par ():
- — ceiling 6 se ke andar.
- — limit se ke andar. Comment: density essentially saturate ho chuki hai jabki temperature (aur pressure) badhte rehte hain — ek ever-faster flow ki extra energy heat mein jaati hai, compression mein nahi. Yahi reason hai ki hypersonic re-entry ek thermal problem hai, compression problem nahi.
L5.2 (Reverse-shock check)
Suppose koi claim karta hai ki ek shock air ko se ek downstream tak le jaata hai ("expansion shock"). Ise entropy relation se test karo aur explain karo ki Second Law kya kehta hai.
Recall Solution
Formally () ratios mein plug karo:
- (pressure drop ho jaata).
- .
- . Entropy decrease karta hai — yeh Second Law violate karta hai. Aisa "expansion shock" impossible hai. Ek subsonic flow ko shock karke supersonic nahi banaya ja sakta; physically real branch sirf compression hai, . Supersonic tak accelerate karne ke liye tumhe smooth isentropic expansion chahiye (ek nozzle ya ek Prandtl–Meyer fan), kabhi shock nahi.
L5.3 (Cross-check via Fanno/Rayleigh intuition)
Confirm karo ki air shock correct branch par hai yeh check karke ki total enthalpy (isliye ) dono sides par identical hai, state 1 se aur state 2 se compute karo aur dikhao ki woh match karte hain.
Recall Solution
Example (a) se: , .
- Upstream: .
- Downstream: . Woh exactly agree karte hain — total temperature conserved hai, energy equation confirm karta hai. Yeh Rayleigh & Fanno flow ke saath shared backbone hai: ek shock woh point hai jahan Fanno aur Rayleigh lines cross karti hain, mass, momentum, aur total enthalpy conserve karte hue supersonic se subsonic intersection par jump karte hue.
Recall
Recall Kaun sa relation reach karna hai? (answers cover karo)
diya ho, downstream Mach kaise nikaalun? ::: Ek target diya ho, kaise find karein? ::: Linear-in- pressure relation ko invert karo. Har shock ke across kya conserved hai? ::: mass, momentum, total enthalpy (isliye ). kaise nikaalun? ::: compute karo, phir . Ek impossible shock ko kaise reject karein? ::: check karo; agar negative hai, toh Second Law violate hota hai.
