Abstract:
A complete calculation of the hydrodynamic variables for shock Mach numbers up to and beyond the point where hydrogen becomes completely ionized is prescribed. A set of curves for initial pressures of 0.001 and 0.01 At. was calculated in February 1957. Recent experimental work at lower pressures has made it necessary to revise the original calculations with the addition of a set of curves for 0.0001 At. initial pressure. The curves include density ratio across the shock wave, the temperature behind the shock wave and the degree of ionization. The first graph runs from a shock Mach number of 1 to 70 while the second graph continues from a shock Mach number of 60 to 200, a region where the hydrogen may be considered completely ionized.
