Aerodynamic Potential Flow Code - Methods of Determining Pressure

Methods of Determining Pressure

Once the Velocity at every point is determined, the pressure can be determined by using one of the following formulas. All various Pressure coefficient methods produce results that are similar and are commonly used to identify regions where the results are invalid.

Pressure Coefficient is defined as:

The Isentropic Pressure Coefficient is:

The Incompressible Pressure Coefficient is:

The Second Order Pressure Coefficient is:

The Slender Body Theory Pressure Coefficient is:

The Linear Theory Pressure Coefficient is:

The Reduced Second Order Pressure Coefficient is:

Famous quotes containing the words methods of, methods, determining and/or pressure:

    I believe in women; and in their right to their own best possibilities in every department of life. I believe that the methods of dress practiced among women are a marked hindrance to the realization of these possibilities, and should be scorned or persuaded out of society.
    Elizabeth Stuart Phelps (1844–1911)

    We can best help you to prevent war not by repeating your words and following your methods but by finding new words and creating new methods.
    Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)

    I esteem it the happiness of this country that its settlers, whilst they were exploring their granted and natural rights and determining the power of the magistrate, were united by personal affection. Members of a church before whose searching covenant all rank was abolished, they stood in awe of each other, as religious men.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Amid the pressure of great events, a general principle gives no help.
