Shock-wave interaction with two dimensional bodies
Abstract
A parametric study of the shock-wave-induced-unsteady flow over various simple two-dimensional shapes is discussed. The Godunov finite difference technique is used to model the flow. Good agreement is found between numerical predictions and available data for early times. The effect of body geometry, height of body above ground, and shock strength on the lift, drag, and pressure distribution on the body is computed.
