A convex corner turns a stream at \( M = 1.5 \) through \( 37.86 \) degrees. The Mach number downstream is nearest to

  • A.3.0
  • B.2.0
  • C.2.5
  • D.4.0

Answer: A

Adding to the upstream value, \( \nu_2 = 11.90 + 37.86 = 49.76 \) degrees, which is \( \nu(3) \), so the flow reaches Mach 3. Working the same problem in two stages, first to Mach 2 and then on to Mach 3, gives the same answer, which is a useful check on the additivity.
