1) 馬赫
A couple of problems with the definition:
- It's not "1 Mach, 2 Mach, ...". It's "Mach 1, Mach 2, ..."
- It's not a "unit of speed".

Wp ~ "As the Mach number is a dimensionless quantity rather than a unit of measure, with Mach, the number comes after the unit; the second Mach number is Mach 2 instead of 2 Mach (or Machs).":


2) 馬赫數
Three problems with the definition:
- It could be a multiple, but not "multiples" (plural). However, it could also be a *fraction* of the speed of sound.
- It's a concept of fluid dynamics rather than specifically aeronautics.
- "1224 km per hr" -- that figure will depend on the fluid.

流体力学中表征流体可压缩程度的一个重要的无量纲参数,记为Ma,定义为流场中某点的速度v同该点的当地声速c之比,即Ma=v/c,它是以奥地利科学家E.马赫的姓氏命名的。

Mach number, in fluid mechanics, ratio of the velocity of a fluid to the velocity of sound in that fluid

Diff:
- 馬赫 马赫 [Ma3 he4] /Mach (name)/Ernst Mach (1838-1916), German physicist/Mach (aeronautics), unit of speed based on speed of sound = 1 Mach = 1224 km per hr/
+ 馬赫 马赫 [Ma3 he4] /Mach (name)/Ernst Mach (1838-1916), German physicist/Mach number (fluid mechanics)/
 
- 馬赫數 马赫数 [Ma3 he4 shu4] /Mach number, multiples of speed of sound used as unit in aeronautics, with 1 Mach = 1224 km per hr/
+ 馬赫數 马赫数 [Ma3 he4 shu4] /Mach number (fluid mechanics)/
