Changelog

v1.4.1

added missing data files.

v1.4.0

Improved usability of the functions that returns list/dict of results. In particular, the show() method was implemented on the returned list/dict in order to visualize a nice table of numerical data.
Added pint support. pint is a module that allows to define, operate and manipulate physical quantities.
Fixed bug within functions that computed wrong results:
Improved robustness of rayleigh_pitot_formula() against overflow errors.
Added functions:
- isentropic_compression()
- shock_compression()
- specific_heat_solver()
Documentation:
- Added a few solutions to ‘Modern Compressible Flow with Historical Perspective’ as a showcase of the capabilities of this module.
- Added a few solutions to ‘Basics of Aerothermodynamics’ as a showcase of the capabilities of this module.
Deprecated pygasflow.generic.sound_speed in favor of sound_speed() in order to remove duplicates.

v1.3.1

added m1_from_rayleigh_pitot_pressure_ratio().
fixed wrong formula of critical_velocity_ratio().

v1.3.0

Added global option pygasflow.defaults.solver_to_dict in order to force all solvers to return a dictionary of results if it’s set to True. Look at Solvers to see an example of its use.
Added new functions:
- gas_solver()
- ideal_gas_solver()
- sonic_condition()
- normal_shockwave_solver()
- oblique_shockwave_solver() as an alias to the old name shockwave_solver. This new name makes it impossible to confuse it with other shockwave solvers.
Added a new sub-module, pygasflow.interactive, which provides a web-based GUI (graphical user interface) to many of the functionalities of the module, implemented with holoviz panel. The GUI allows:
- for an easier and non-programmatic way of getting quick results.
- to easily explore different configurations.
- reliability: over the years there have been many web-based compressible flow GUIs on the internet. However, they are not guaranteed to exists forever. On the other hand, this sub-module is part of pygasflow, and it will always be readily available should the user needs it.
Added a new sub-module, pygasflow.interactive.diagram, which provides functionalities to quickly creates diagram related to compressible flows, like isentropic diagram, Fanno diagram, oblique shock diagram, shock polar diagram, etc.
Added PressureDeflectionLocus and PressureDeflectionDiagram to easily create pressure-deflection diagrams and compute related quantities.
Improved reliability of sonic_point_oblique_shock() and sonic_point_conical_shock().
Fixed bug with oblique_shockwave_solver() and propagation of the specific heats ratio when the flow deflection angle and the shock wave angle were provided as input arguments.
Fixed bug with m_from_critical_temperature_ratio() and propagation of the specific heats ratio.
Fixed bug with mach_from_theta_beta(), which computed a wrong Mach number for the special case beta=90, theta=0.
Fixed bug with some functions that computed wrong results when integer numbers were provided as arguments.
Fixed bug with shock_polar() and propagation of a parameter to other functions.
Fixed functions that raised RuntimeWarning: divide by zero encountered in divide.
Fixed bug with data not being loaded by the module.
DEPRECATIONS: here is a list of newly introduced deprecations. See Deprecations to understand the motivations.
- The following is a list of parameter names used by oblique_shockwave_solver() and conical_shockwave_solver() which are now deprecated:
  - "m1" indicated the upstream Mach number. "mu" should be used instead.
  - "mn1" indicated the upstream normal Mach number. "mnu" should be used instead.
  - "m2" indicated the downstream Mach number. "md" should be used instead.
  - "mn2" indicated the downstream normal Mach number. "mnd" should be used instead.
  - "m" indicated the upstream Mach number of a conical shock wave. "mu" should be used instead.
  These changes also applies to the dictionary of results, if the solver was executed with the keyword argument to_dict=True.
- beta_theta_max_for_unit_mach_downstream has been deprecated in favor of sonic_point_oblique_shock().
- beta_from_mach_max_theta has been deprecated in favor of detachment_point_oblique_shock().
- beta_theta_c_for_unit_mach_downstream has been deprecated in favor of sonic_point_conical_shock().
BREAKING:
- Removed classes Ideal_Gas and Flow_State from pygasflow.utils.common as no longer useful to the module.
- Refactoring of pygasflow.nozzles and pygasflow.solver.de_laval in order to use the holoviz param module, which allows for a more robust code base while also providing the foundation for interactive applications. In particular, De_Laval_Solver, CD_Conical_Nozzle, CD_TOP_Nozzle, CD_Min_Length_Nozzle are no longer compatible with previous versions of the module.
