compressibility effects

Compressibility effects refer to the changes in fluid behavior that occur due to variations in pressure and density, particularly at high speeds or in low-pressure environments. These effects can impact the aerodynamics and performance of aircraft, rockets, and other vehicles, as well as the behavior of gases and liquids in industrial processes. Compressibility effects may include changes in drag, lift, shock formation, and flow separation, among other factors.
