19. Canonical flows

Quasi 1-dimensional flows.

1-dimensional flows. Non-ideal flows:

• friction dominated (Fanno)

• with heat transfer (Rayleigh)

n-dimensional flows.

• Normal shocks

• Oblique shocks

• Prandtl-Meyer expansion fan (2-dimensionnal, steady)

todo Cylindrical symmetry?…

Other examples of compressible flows:

• …some flow governed by potential equation

• Riemann problems of 1-dimensional flows

• …other flows that can be solved with method of characteristics:

  • piston compression/expansion (wall b.c.)

  • open pipes…

  • acoustics…
