Experimental Study on High Subsonic Turbulent Flow Incipient Separation.

摘要

For flow over a two-dimensional ramp compression corner case, an experimental investigation to determine the incipient separation was carried out at Mach numbers between 0.55 and 0.9 and Reynolds numbers (based on undisturbed boundary layer thickness) between 350,000 and 690,000. Detailed surface pressure, pitot traversing and oil flow data were obtained for each ramp angle case. Two-dimensionality of the ramp compression corners was verified by the surface oil flow. A major finding of this study is that the incipient separation ramp angle is relatively independent of Mach number and Reynolds number within the range studied. The incipient separation ramp angle was found to be about 22.5 degrees.
