Maximum Value of Oblique shock

The largest gas dynamics tables (also on--line) in the world can be found here (over 600 pages).

The maximum values are summarized in the following Table .

It must be noted that the calculations are for the perfect gas model. In some cases, this assumption might not be sufficient and different analysis is needed. Henderson and Menikoff13.23 suggested a procedure to calculate the maximum deflection angle for arbitrary equation of state13.24.
