Title: Computational analysis of hypersonic shock wave/wall jet interaction
Author(s): Mekkes, Gregory L.
Abstract: The purpose of this study is to investigate the CFD code General Aerodynamic Simulation Program (GASP) for application to a specific scramjet combustor phenomenon, that of an adverse pressure gradient caused by an oblique shock wave impinging upon a wall cooling film. The basis of this investigation is data available from an existing experimental study, which includes wall pressure, wall heat transfer, and schlieren photographs. This experimental study was conducted at a nominal Mach number of 6.0 in the Calspan 48-inch shock tunnel. The particular case of interest generates flow separation at the shock impingement point. Two algebraic turbulence models, the Baldwin-Lomax model and the Goldberg model, are considered for this computational study. Resultant computational wall pressure and heat transfer for both turbulence models are compared with experimental data. The Goldberg turbulence model provides a more accurate prediction of the recirculation region, and as a result, a better comparison with the experimental data.
