Therefore almost all of the normal shock relations can be converted to oblique shock relations with the substitution

At point (a) the ow is perpendicular to the shock wave and the properties of the ow are governed by the normal shock relations. In moving from point (a) to (b) the shock weakens and the deection of the ow behind the shock increases until a point of maximum ow deection is reached at (b). The Mach number behind the shock is subsonic up to point (c) where the Mach number just downstream of the shock is one.

Since the ow downstream of the reected wave must again be parallel to the wall, both waves must produce the same change in ow direction. Thus, in order to determine the
properties of this reected wave, the following procedure is used:
1. For the given M1 and determine M2 and p2 / p1.
2. For this value of M2 and since the turning angle of the second wave is also determine M and p3 / p2.
3. The overall pressure ratio is then found from:

4. The angle that the reected wave makes with the wall is 2 + and since 2 was found in step 2, this angle can be determined.

The ows in regions 4 and 5 shown in the gure must, of course, be parallel to each other. Therefore, conservation of momentum applied in a direction normal to the ows in these two regions indicates that the pressures in regions 4 and 5 must be the same.
The initial waves separating regions 1 and 2 and regions 1 and 3 are, of course, determined by the Mach number in region 1 and the turning angles, and .
The properties of the "transmitted" waves are then determined from the condition that the pressures and ow directions in regions 4 and 5 must be the same.
The density, velocity and entropy will then be different in these two regions and the slipstream shown must, therefore, exist.
Of course, when = the initial waves are both of the same strength as are the transmitted waves. No slipstream then exists.
