  • The efficiency of adiabatic expansion 
    Morley, A. W. (College of Aeronautics, Cranfield, 1948-09)
    The efficiency of a process of compression or expansion of a gas is commonly defined in terms of the change in energy which occurs as compared with the change required in isentropic flow. In another method the efficiency ...
  • Note on the efficiency of adiabatic shock 
    Morley, A. W. (College of Aeronautics, Cranfield., 1948-09)
    This note records some calculations of the efficiency of adiabatic shock in air (x=1.4); where the efficiency is defined as the ratio of the work used to compress the air in the shock wave, from the inlet static to the ...
