| 31. | Now the Mach number can be derived directly from the dimensionless form of the momentum equation.
|
| 32. | In this example the turbine is a transonic unit, where the throat Mach number reaches choked.
|
| 33. | Alternatively, at Mach numbers increasing towards the speed of sound and beyond, wave drag dominates design concerns.
|
| 34. | :: : : : Yes, the Mach number is the speed relative to the speed of sound.
|
| 35. | The variation of net thrust with flight Mach number can be clearly seen on the Husk Plot.
|
| 36. | A Mach number of 1.0 indicates an airspeed equal to the speed of sound in that air.
|
| 37. | At burn-out the Mach number was 1.2.
|
| 38. | Analyzing ducts flowing at higher velocities with mach numbers in excess of 0.3 usually require Compressible flow relations.
|
| 39. | By actively increasing sweep as Mach number increases, high efficiency is possible for a wide range of speeds.
|
| 40. | For a ramjet operating at a subsonic flight Mach number, exhaust flow is accelerated through a converging nozzle.
