Abstract
The unsteadiness of crossing shock wave turbulent boundary layer interactions at a nominal Mach number of 3 was examined by measuring wall pressure fluctuations using multiple, high frequency response, pressure transducers. The unsteadiness in the initial part of the interaction for all the interactions is similar to that of single fin interaction as studied by Tran and Bogdonoff (1987). However, for stronger interactions, flow downstream of the inviscid shock crossing position has a significant unsteady characteristic. In this unsteady region of the interaction, mean surface pressure rises significantly over the value obtained from the inviscid shock approximation. The energy spectrum of the fluctuating pressure signal shows a significant increase in the energy level at the higher frequencies.
