Isentropic expansion waves refer to a type of wave that occurs in compressible fluid dynamics, particularly in the context of gas dynamics and supersonic flows. The term "isentropic" implies that the process is both adiabatic (no heat transfer) and reversible (no entropy generation). \#\#\# Key Concepts: 1. **Isentropic Process**: An isentropic process is one in which the entropy remains constant.
