| Abstract: | The interference between the shock layer on a cylinder modeling the leading edge of an air intake and an impinging plane inclined shock is investigated experimentally and numerically for a Reynolds number Re0=32. The low-pressure wind tunnel experiments made it possible to visualize the flow and determine the local heat transfer in the presence of interference. The corresponding flow regimes were calculated numerically within the framework of the system of Navier-Stokes equations by the through-calculation method. The principal properties of the distribution of the flow characteristics for a low value of the Reynolds number were obtained for various types of interference and the differences with respect to the previously investigated interference regimes for high Reynolds numbers were examined.Translated from Izvestiya Rossiiskoi Akademii Nauk, Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, No. 1, pp. 166–171, January–February, 1993. |
