Oblique Shock Wave/Turbulent Boundary Layer Interactions in Three Dimensions at Mach 3. Part I.

Abstract

An experimental study, thoroughly documenting the flow field and surface data resulting from the three-dimensional interaction of a shock wave, a shock generator and a high Reynolds number turbulent boundary layer, is described. Detailed surface static pressure data and heat transfer measurements are presented for 7 shock generator deflection angles ranging from 2 to 14 deg. in 2 deg. increments. The test conditions consist of a free stream Reynolds number per inch of 1.6 million, a near adiabatic wall temperature and ambient stagnation temperature. In addition to the surface data detailed flow field surveys have been conducted of time-averaged variables including flow angularity, pitot pressure, static pressure and total temperature at 2 shock generator deflection angles of 4 and 10 degrees. Detailed discussions of the experimental techniques are given which include a complete set of error estimates of the various types of data. Finally the data are presented in graphical form which may be used to analyse the problem under consideration. (Author)
