The calculator is useful for calculations
of isentropic flow, normal- and oblique-shock relations as well as Prandtl-Mayer
expansions. The layout originates from the compressible aerodynamics calculator
written in javascript by Dr. W.J. Devenport at the Dept. of Aerospace and Ocean
Engineering at Virginia Tech.
