Stagnation Properties
Solving compressible flow equations requires equations to relate static and stagnation properties. The following equations are used by AFT xStream to relate stagnation temperature, pressure, enthalpy, and density (T0, P0, h0, and ρ0, respectively), velocity (or Mach number, M), and static temperature, pressure, enthalpy, and density (T, P, h, and ρ, respectively).
