| Abstract: | A model which makes it possible to calculate the reverse-flow parameters in the separation zone is constructed on the basis of the results of an integrated experimental study of the characteristics of the separated flow developed in the transition from  free to non-free interaction between plane shock waves and the boundary layer on a plate with slip. The effect of the Mach number of the reverse flow in the separation zone on the properties of inner boundary layer separation is analyzed. Features of the interference flow due to boundary layer transition are described. The present study is a continuation of investigations 1–3] devoted to the study of a new steady-state type of interaction between shock waves and the boundary layer on a plate with slip in which the separation line formed would propagate upstream beyond the sharp leading edge if no leading edge was present, i.e., so-called non-free interaction. |
