Numerical Investigation on Unsteady Flow Field of the Forward-Facing Cavity and Opposing Jet Combine Thermal Protection System

摘要

In this paper, the unsteady flow field formed by the hemisphere nose-tip with forward-facing cavity and opposing jet combined thermal protection system (TPS) under high speed free stream flow (Ma4.98) was investigated numerically. The periodic variation of the drag coefficient and the flow field of the nose-tip were obtained. The numerical results show that a suitable cooperation between the opposing jet stream condition and the physical dimension of the cavity is necessary.
