A Study of the Turbulent Shock Wave Boundary Layer Interaction.

Abstract

Two approaches to the shock wave-boundary layer interaction procedure have been investigated. In the first approach a strong interaction boundary layer procedure has been applied to the shock wave-turbulent boundary layer interaction problem by modifying a well-proven weak interaction boundary layer procedure to allow for strong interaction solutions. In the second approach the feasibility of using a fully implicit Navier-Stokes solution procedure for the interaction problem was investigated. The results indicate that the fully implicit procedure is a promising one, however, further development work, particularly in regard to shock representation, is required.
