Hi, does anyone know the definition of "stagnation pressure" at the tip of a slender body
with attached oblique shockwave?
Since the shockwave is completely "attached" to the pointing tip, I think that there is
no flow "behind" the shock at the tip.
So I proceed to think that the stagnation pressure at the tip should be stagnation pressure
of the freestream flow without any pressure loss from the shock.
I have been looking for the answer for days but surprisingly there is not a single source
that answers my question.
I appreciate any help.
