Transsonischer

Transsonischer refers to a sound phenomenon or characteristic related to transsonic flight. Transsonic flight occurs when an aircraft or object travels at speeds that are close to the speed of sound, typically within the range of Mach 0.8 to Mach 1.2. In this speed regime, the airflow around the object can experience both subsonic and supersonic characteristics simultaneously. This means that some parts of the airflow might be moving faster than sound while other parts remain below the speed of sound.

The term "transsonischer" itself is likely a derivative or adjective form related to this speed range. It might be used to describe effects, conditions, or phenomena that occur specifically within the transsonic flight regime. This can include unique aerodynamic challenges such as wave drag, shock waves, and buffeting, which become significant as an object approaches and moves through the sound barrier.

Understanding and managing transsonischer effects is crucial in aerospace engineering for designing aircraft that can efficiently and safely operate across different speed regimes, including transsonic speeds. While the term might not be as widely recognized as "supersonic" or "subsonic," it points to the complex and transitional aerodynamic conditions experienced during flight near Mach 1.
