Overview

The Mach number (MaMa) is the ratio of flow velocity to the local speed of sound. It classifies compressible flow regimes and determines when compressibility effects become significant.

Variables

Symbol Description Unit
MaMa Mach number
vv Flow velocity m/s
cc Speed of sound m/s
γ\gamma Ratio of specific heats
RR Specific gas constant J/(kg·K)
TT Absolute temperature K

Formula

Ma=vc=vγRTMa = \frac{v}{c} = \frac{v}{\sqrt{\gamma R T}}
