flows.
2. Explain the philosophy of hypersonic small disturbance theory.
3. What are the governing parameters of hypersonic flow?
4. Describe the hypersonic equivalence principle and state its importance.
5. Derive the expression for wall pressure and shock shape for the blunt slab using
blast wave theory.
6. Mention the procedure for implementation of thin shock layer theory.
