CFD Analysis and Prediction of Shockwave/Boundary-Layer Interaction at Hypersonic Flows Using RANS Models
Abstract: Interaction of shockwaves with turbulent boundary layer plays an important role in the design and operability of high-speed aerospace vehicles and air-breathing engines. The adverse pressure gradient of the shock is often strong enough to separate the boundary layer. The objective of the present research paper deals with the analysis of hypersonic viscous flows dominated by strong shockwave/boundary-layer interactions (SWBLI) over wing-flap and wing-fuselage junction configurations. The effects of the …
