9 Shocks 1. Shocks are sudden transitions in flow properties such as density, velocity and pressure;. In shocks the kinetic energy of the flow is converted into heat, (pressure); 3. Shocks are inevitable if sound waves propagate over long distances; 4. Shocks always occur when a flow hits an obstacle supersonically 5. In shocks, the flow speed along the shock normal changes from supersonic to subsonic 9
