What Is This Tool?

This converter transforms speed values measured as the velocity of sound in pure water into Mach numbers defined at 20 °C and 1 atm. It allows users to relate underwater acoustic speed to a standardized air-based speed scale.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the speed value representing velocity of sound in pure water in metres per second
  • Select the input unit as Velocity of sound in pure water
  • Choose Mach (20°C, 1 atm) as the output unit
  • Click convert to see the equivalent speed expressed in Mach numbers
  • Use the results to compare or analyze speeds across different media

Key Features

  • Converts velocity of sound in pure water (m/s) to Mach (20°C, 1 atm)
  • Applies a fixed conversion rate based on reference conditions
  • Useful for underwater acoustics and aerospace speed comparisons
  • Browser-based and user-friendly interface
  • Provides examples for straightforward understanding

Examples

  • Convert 1482 m/s (velocity of sound in pure water at 20 °C, 1 atm) to Mach (20°C, 1 atm): 1482 × 4.3151920838 = 6393.2 Mach
  • Convert 1000 m/s (velocity of sound in pure water) to Mach (20°C, 1 atm): 1000 × 4.3151920838 = 4315.19 Mach

Common Use Cases

  • Sonar and echo-sounding for measuring depth and detecting objects
  • Oceanographic profiling with acoustic Doppler and tomography instruments
  • Design and performance calibration of underwater acoustic devices like sonars and hydrophones
  • Reporting and analyzing aircraft speeds relative to a standard sound speed
  • Wind tunnel testing and computational fluid dynamics studies involving flow regimes

Tips & Best Practices

  • Always confirm input speed relates to velocity of sound in pure water under specified conditions
  • Use the standard reference conditions (20°C, 1 atm) for consistent Mach comparisons
  • Interpret Mach results as relative speeds based on dry air sound speed at these conditions
  • Cross-check conversions when dealing with variable temperature, pressure, or salinity
  • Leverage conversion results to bridge underwater acoustic data with aerospace speed standards

Limitations

  • Velocity of sound in pure water changes with temperature, pressure, and salinity, so conversion assumes specific reference conditions
  • Mach number is based on dry air at 20 °C and 1 atm and may not reflect actual atmospheric sound speeds
  • Conversions do not account for environmental variations affecting sound speed in air or water

Frequently Asked Questions
