Effects of a nonadiabatic wall on hypersonic shock/boundary-layer interactions
Pedro Stefanin Volpiani, Matteo Bernardini, Johan Larsson
Abstract
The effects of wall thermal conditions on the canonical case of an impinging shock wave interacting with a turbulent boundary layer is a topic that remains under explored. Direct numerical simulations are used to study the flow properties of hypersonic-shock--boundary-layer interactions with distinct wall thermal conditions and shock angles.
