Abstract

An analytical formulation for the prediction of Mach stem height for asymmetric wedge reflection in 2-D steady flows is presented. The present model is based on a previous model for Mach stem height in a symmetric reflection. The asymmetric Mach reflection configuration is approached as the combination of upper and lower domains of symmetric Mach reflection. Assumptions made for closing the combined set of equations are discussed. The Mach stem heights are calculated using each set of closing equations. The von Neumann condition for Mach reflection to regular reflection transition in asymmetric case is satisfied by this model for all closing equations.
