Abstract
In this article, triple-shock configurations in the problem of the influence of an energy source on a supersonic flow past a plate blunted by a cylinder are studied. The changes of angles in triple-shock configurations depending on an external energy source for different gas mixtures have been investigated for freestream Mach numbers from 3 to 4.2. The dependences of angles in triple-type configurations on the characteristics of energy release have been presented. Complicated shock-vortex structures with multiple reflections of simple waves accompanying these configurations have been obtained. Generation of the Richtmyer–Meshkov instability has been established and mechanism for its generation has been suggested. Conclusion about the possibility of the control of unsteady triple-type shock configurations and accompanying slip streams with the use of an external energy source has been made.
