Computations of Interaction of an Incident Oblique Shock Wave with a Turbulent Boundary Layer on a Flat Plate

Results of numerical simulation of interaction between an oblique shock wave and a turbulent boundary layer formed in a supersonic (Mach number M =5) flow past a flat plate are presented. The computations are performed for three cases of interaction of different intensity, which result in an attached or detached flow. Numerical results are compared with experimental data. The effect of flow turbulence and shockwave unsteadiness on flow parameters is studied.
