An expansion fan striking a plane solid wall reflects as

  • A.A normal shock
  • B.Nothing; it is absorbed
  • C.Another expansion
  • D.An oblique shock

Answer: C

The wall requires the flow to remain tangent to it, and the incident expansion has turned the flow away from the wall. Restoring tangency requires a further turn in the same sense, which means another expansion. A solid wall therefore reflects a wave in kind.
