This new book leads readers step-by-step through the complexities
encountered as moving objects approach and cross the sound barrier.
The problems of transonic flight were apparent with the very first
experimental flights of scale-model rockets when the disastrous
impact of shock waves and flow separations caused the aircraft to
spin wildly out of control. Today many of these problems have been
overcome, and this book offers an introduction to the transonic
theory that has made possible many of these advances. The emphasis
is on the most important basic approaches to the solution of
transonic problems. The book also includes explanations of common
pitfalls that must be avoided. An effort has been made to derive
the most important equations of inviscid and viscous transonic flow
in sufficient detail so that even novices may feel confident in
their problem-solving ability. The use of computer approaches is
reviewed, with references to the extensive literature in this area,
while the critical shortcomings of an exclusive reliance on
computational methods are also described. The book will be valuable
to anyone who needs to acquire an understanding of transonic flow,
including practicing engineers as well as students of fluid
mechanics.
