Octav Posted March 28, 2005 Posted March 28, 2005 Supesonic shockwaves, present in the jet gas flow, bouncin on the boundry between the hot gas and the surroundin air (somewnat the same as the light bounces in water when it hits the water-air interface) Cheers, Octavian

F l a n k e r Posted March 29, 2005 Posted March 29, 2005 Yes, it is named Mach disk. The flow structure displaying a converging exhaust jet and an oblique shock starting at the nozzle lip and ending in a Mach disk, is the configuration of a slightly overexpanded nozzle. The flow is overexpanded due it is too hot and the nozzle can't resist this temperature if adapted. Bye!

Well, what do you think about new radar models in Flaming Cliffs? Regards, Thanks for the thumbs up :) Regarding the new radar modes, I didn't have the time to test the demo, yet, but from the mode descriptions, unfortunately (and I've checked that with a retired pilot a few days ago), they've made them too reallistic this time (they made things more complicated than in real life :( ) Hope for something better in 1.1x or 1.2 Cheers, Octavian
