The force effect of a highly underexpanded low-density jet on a flat barrier
Abstract
The lateral effect of a highly underexpanded low-density jet on a flat plate was studied in a vacuum wind tunnel at Mach numbers ranging from 1.0 to 3.92. The obtained results make it possible to refine the criterial dependences which determine the form of the shock wave above the barrier and the distribution of induced pressure on its surface. These dependences can be applied to the case of a jet with a turbulent mixing layer as well as to a purely laminar jet.
