shock77 is on a distinguished road
Hello,


I am currently trying to solve the normal shock relations for two species. I have basically a shock tunnel, where a moving shock propagetes from a high pressurized helium chamber into a air chamber with ambient pressure and temperature.


Therefore before the moving shock there is air with y=1,4 and R = 287 and behind the shock there is helium with y=1.67 and R = 2077.


My questions are:


1. Is there any literature where this problem has already been solved? Unfortunately I couldn't find any.


2. Is the assumption correct, that behind the shock there is pure helium or is there some sort of mixing? I would say it is pure helium, since the pressure behind the shock is higher than ambient pressure, so backflow is not possible. Just want to make sure I am not missing an important aspect.




Thanks in advance!

Are you after the simple solution if the shock relations? Aren't these found in every look on gas dynamics?
