High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Normal shock tables are a series of tabulated data listing the various properties before and after the occurrence of a normal shock wave. With a given upstream Mach number, the post-shock Mach number can be calculated along with the pressure, density, temperature, and stagnation pressure ratios. Such tables are useful since the equations used to calculate the properties after a normal shock are cumbersome.
