Thermodynamic
Relationships and
Compressible Bernoulli
A high-speed flow of gas is also a high-energy flow. The kinetic energy of the fluid
elements in a high-speed flow is large and must be taken into account. When high-speed
flows are slowed down, the consequent reduction in kinetic energy appears as a
substantial increase in temperature. As a result, high-speed flows, compressibility and
vast energy changes are all related.
To study compressible flows, we must recall thermodynamics
