Up to which Mach number is Prandtl – Glauert rule applicable for subsonic flow?(a) 1(b) 0.5(c) 0.8(d) 0.65The question was asked in class test.Query is from Linearized Subsonic Flow topic in division Linearized and Conical Flows of Aerodynamics

Answer»

Right answer is (c) 0.8

To elaborate: For an increasing MACH number in a subsonic flow over a body, the coefficient of pressure also increases as a result of Prandtl – Glauert RULE. But, after Mach number 0.8 the EQUATION fails because the flow enters transonic regime where coefficient of pressure TENDS to INFINITY as Mach number tends to unity.
