In order to study wall effects in shock tube flows, measurements have been made of shock strength, of average density across the tube, and of pressure at the walls. These measurements are compared with explicit predictions of Trimpi and Cohen and of Mirels and Braun. Under conditions where the theories should apply, they predict shock attenuation and values of the flow variables sufficiently well to justify as essentially correct the assumptions that the turbulent boundary layer produced by the shock is similar to the boundary layer observed in steady flows and that waves generated by wall effects can be considered as one‐dimensional. A need for some modification of the theories is indicated, however, by lack of quantitative agreement in certain cases. Considerable mixing of the hot and cold gases is observed to occur. Neither theory attempts to explain the mixing nor takes into account its effects on wave propagation.
