Local Shock-Layer Thickness Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Local Shock-layer Thickness = Local ordinate of the shock-Local Ordinate Body
δ = s-b
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Local Shock-layer Thickness - (Measured in Meter) - Local Shock-layer Thickness is the thickness of the shock formed over the body.
Local ordinate of the shock - (Measured in Meter) - Local ordinate of the shock, the coordinate of the point on the body when shock occurs, used for calculation of grid location.
Local Ordinate Body - (Measured in Meter) - Local Ordinate Body, the coordinate of the point on the body when shock occurs, used for calculation of grid location.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Local ordinate of the shock: 20 Millimeter --> 0.02 Meter (Check conversion here)
Local Ordinate Body: 12.5 Millimeter --> 0.0125 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

δ = s-b --> 0.02-0.0125

Evaluating ... ...

δ = 0.0075

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.0075 Meter -->7.5 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

7.5 Millimeter <-- Local Shock-layer Thickness

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
