Isentropic Calculator

Quick Description:

OPie Isentropic Calculator is a compressible aerodynamic flow calculator that also calculates the 90 degree (Normal) shock, Oblique Shock, Fanno Flow, and Rayleigh conditions.

Most people use a K (or gamma) of 1.4 (Air). But you can change that number if desired. Your main input will go in the input block. In the case above 1.1 was entered and the Mach button was depressed.

Plot Page: Plots the Isentropic values from Mach 0 to Mach 3.

Information Page: Definition of terms and the equations that were used on the Isentropic Page

Normal Shock Page: Just like the Isentropic Page, enter a value into the input box and depress one of the orange buttons.

Plot Page: Plots the values across the normal shock wave.

Oblique Shock Page: This page requires that both K and M1 are defined. It defaults to K = 1.4 (Air) and M1 = 1.5. Both of these values can be changed by putting a new number in the Input Box and then either pressing the K or M1 button. To finish the calculation, a third term must be entered

Shows all the values listed plotted against Mach. The slider adjusts the Shock angle.

This shows the deflection angle vs the shock angle. The slider adjusts the Mach.
