What is the stagnation properties of fluid?

When a fluid flows past an immersed body if the resultant velocity of the fluid at a point on the body becomes zero, the values of pressure, temperature, and density at that point will be termed as stagnation properties.

What is the significance of Mach number in compressible fluid flow?

The Mach Number is a dimensionless value useful for analyzing fluid flow dynamics problems where compressibility is a significant factor. The bulk modulus elasticity has the dimension pressure and is commonly used to characterize fluid compressibility. The square of the Mach number is the Cauchy Number.
