| Abstract: | A comparative analysis of the results of physical 1–4] and mathematical experiments 5–8] is used to elucidate the mechanism of additional pressure lift at a Mach wavefront. The possibility and range of application of simplified flow models for the estimation of the pressure at certain characteristic points of the reflection surface (for example, a prism, a cylinder, or a sphere) was investigated.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, No. 2, pp. 100–106, March–April, 1977. |
