Abstract

Experimental and numerical results are presented for developing supersonic turbulent flow in an annular duct formed by a circular centerbody and outer shroud. The experimental results are based on data taken in a new flow facility that was designed to generate a shock-free, supersonic annular flow. Numerical computations were performed using the Baldwin-Lomax turbulence model for comparison with experimentally measured profiles. The results demonstrate that computed and measured profiles are in excellent agreement, so that studies can now be conducted of shock wave/boundary layer interaction phenomena within the duct, such as those induced by changes in downstream duct geometry or by the placement of struts between the duct walls.
