Mach’s Cone
• As Mach number increases, the strength of the Cone increases
and the Angle of the shockwave becomes increasingly severe

Moving Disturbance of Finite Size In A Fluid

• Mach’s thought experiments are limited to infinitesimally small object.

• What is minimum size of the object, which will follow Mach’s cone?

• Later experience proved following:

•As mach number becomes very large for a given size of the object, the Mach

wave becomes a shock wave and gets bent so severely that it lies right against the

vehicle.

• Resulting flow field referred to as a shock layer.


Mach’s experiments

Mach was actually the first person in history to develop a


method for visualizing the flow passing over an object at
supersonic speeds.
He was also the first to understand the fundamental
principles that govern supersonic flow and their impact on
aerodynamics.

"Photographische Fixierung der durch


Projektile in der Luft eingeleiten Vorgange"
that he presented to the Academy of Sciences
in Vienna in 1887.

Mach’s Witness of Shock

• Not only was Mach was able to make the invisible shock waves
visible, but it is even more amazing that he was able to photograph
the phenomenon.
• His experiments required split-second timing in an age before
computers or electronics were available.
• Mach's shadowgraph technique and a related method called Schlieren
photography are still widely used to observe supersonic flow fields
even today.
• Yet Mach's contributions to supersonic aerodynamics were not
limited to experimental methods alone.
• He was the first person to note the sudden and discontinuous changes
in the behavior of an airflow when the ratio V/c goes from being less
than 1 to greater than 1.
Mach Waves, Revisited

• A ‘’point-mass’’ object moving with Supersonic velocity Generates an


infinitesimally weak “mach wave”.
• The direction of flow remains unchanged across Mach wave.
