Abstract
An experimental study was conducted to investigate penetration and plume expansion enhancement of a discrete low-angled (25 deg) supersonic (M =1.9) injection into a supersonic (M =2.9) crosse ow. The enhancement was achieved by injecting the low-angled jet parallel to a compression ramp. Seven compression ramp cone gurations were studied. The jet-ramp interaction enhancement mechanisms included baroclinic torque vorticity, ramp spillage vorticity, bulk compression, and the Magnus force. Shadowgraph photography was used to identify shock structures. Measurements of mean e ow properties quantie ed the e owe eld total pressure losses. Mie scattering images were used to qualitatively assess the e owe eld and to quantify the plume size, trajectory, and concentration decay rate. The results indicated that up to a 22% increase in penetration, a 39% plume expansion (» mixing), and a 27% increase in the concentration decay rate, with a corresponding 17% increase in total pressure loss, can be achieved by injection over a compression ramp as compared with low-angled injection alone.
