For a given cone angle and freestream Mach number, how many oblique shock(s) is/are present?
For a given cone angle and freestream Mach number, how many oblique shock(s) is/are present? Correct Answer 2
For a conical flow placed in a freestream Mach number M∞ with a particular cone angle θc, there exists two oblique shock waves which is a result of one weak and one strong solution. It is similar to the case of wedge where using θ – β – M graph we obtain two shock waves.
