Velocity Measurements in a 3D (Three Dimensional) Shock Wave Laminar Boundary Layer Interaction

摘要

An experimental investigation of the three dimensional laminar boundary layer separation associated with an incident swept shock wave was conducted in the von Karman Institute (VKI) S-1 supersonic wind tunnel operating at Mach 2.15. Mean velocity profiles were measured both in the attached separated and reattachment flow regions using a laser doppler velocimeter. A comparison of the measurements with a full 3D Navier-Stokes solver, developed at the VKI, exhibited good agreement in all three regions, thus validating the code which was based on the Beam-Warming algorithm. The report also reviews the earlier parts of the grant dealing with the necessary developments in LDV to achieve high quality data, and the of the 2D shock boundary layer interaction.
