Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book pioneers an approach to calculating shock waves in gases and fluids based on temperature rather than the linear estimation of heat. It unlocks the analysis of highly heated shock waves where the assumption of constant heat is only a rough approximation. The book delves into the fundamental thermodynamics of gas dynamics, seamlessly weaving together the complexities of shock wave behavior. By deriving a clear-cut algebraic algorithm, the author ingeniously shows how to tackle both gases and fluids, including ideal gases and those obeying Tammann's equation of state, using one unified scheme. This innovative approach brings clarity and precision to the previously intricate exploration of shock waves, opening new avenues for understanding these dynamic phenomena.
