Propagation of Plane Shock Waves in a Liquid Containing Bubbles of a Conducting Gas

Abstract

This paper considers the propagation of plane shock waves in a mixture of conducting gas and liquid by taking appropriate equations of continuity, momentum, energy and an equation of state. When the temperature rise, which is small for a very wide range of problems is neglected, across a shock, it is shown that teh shock wave relations assume a simple form. It is also suggested that the relations can be applied to the collision between two normal shock waves.
