History
Its origins lie with simpler machines.
In 19th century,Ernst Machsought to understand the
physical phenomenon involved through
experimentation.
At the beginning of 20th century, Ludwig Prandtland his
students proposed important concepts ranging from the
boundary layerto supersonicshock waves,
supersonic wind tunnels, and supersonic nozzle design.
Theodore von Krmn, a student of Prandtl, continued
to improve the understanding of supersonic flow.
