Off-Design Regimes of Flow past Waveriders Based on Isentropic Compression Flows

摘要

Supersonic off-design flow past waveriders on the M = 3 to 10 freestream Mach number range is numerically investigated. Configurations based on the flows behind plane shocks followed by isentropic flow compression are considered. The flow regimes are analyzed at the Mach numbers both smaller and greater than the design value M_d. The results are obtained by finite-volume solution of the Euler equations using higher-order Runge-Kutta TVD schemes.
