Abstract

Large-eddy simulations of supersonic compression-ramp flowfields were performed by a high-order numerical method, utilizing the Smagorinsky dynamic subgrid-scale model to account for spatially underresolved stresses. Computations were carried out at a freestream Mach number of 3.0 for ramp angles of 8, 16, 20, and 24 deg. Extensive comparisons are made between the respective solutions and available experimental data that were collected at higher Reynolds numbers. These include surface pressure, skin friction, and both mean and fluctuating velocity profiles. For the 24-deg case, a number of experimentally measured statistical quantities are compared to the simulation
