Where is methods of characteristics used?(a) Designing supersonic nozzle(b) Designing fuselage’s bulkhead(c) Computing optimum wing camber(d) Designing diamond airfoil for supersonic flowI had been asked this question in semester exam.My query is from Determination of Compatibility Equations in section Numerical Techniques for Steady Supersonic Flow of Aerodynamics

Answer»

Correct answer is (a) Designing supersonic nozzle

Easy explanation: Methods of characteristics are used in designing the supersonic nozzle. For this, a line with known supersonic flow fields is REQUIRED. Upon going downstream, depending on where the point LIES (internal/wall) the method of characteristics is applied to find the flow FIELD.
