Book Description
The effect of compressibility on the mixing layer was investigated at Mach number 2.47. Pitot pressure, static pressure and hot-wire surveys were made to investigate the mean flow and the fluctuation quantities. Similarities between supersonic and incompressible mixing layers are observed in normalized velocity profile, normalized power spectral density distribution and convection velocity distribution. Spreading rate, normalized shear stress and velocity fluctuation were found to be appreciably smaller than the respective incompressible results; e.g., the momentum thickness growth rates are 0.0073 and 0.035 for supersonic and incompressible flows, respectively. The difference between free and wall-bounded mixing layers is discussed. Development of turbulence structure of mixing layer with increasing Reynolds number was also investigated. (Author).

Turbulent Shear Layers in Supersonic Flow
Author: Alexander J. Smits
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 0387263055
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 418
Book Description
A good understanding of turbulent compressible flows is essential to the design and operation of high-speed vehicles. Such flows occur, for example, in the external flow over the surfaces of supersonic aircraft, and in the internal flow through the engines. Our ability to predict the aerodynamic lift, drag, propulsion and maneuverability of high-speed vehicles is crucially dependent on our knowledge of turbulent shear layers, and our understanding of their behavior in the presence of shock waves and regions of changing pressure. Turbulent Shear Layers in Supersonic Flow provides a comprehensive introduction to the field, and helps provide a basis for future work in this area. Wherever possible we use the available experimental work, and the results from numerical simulations to illustrate and develop a physical understanding of turbulent compressible flows.
