Abstract
The problem of the interaction of a strongly underexpanded axisymmetric jet with an obstacle for which the normal to the surface makes an angle near π/2 with the jet axis is rather laborious for numerical solution due to the high disequilibrium of the gas-dynamic parameters in the peripheral part of the jet and the three-dimensional nature of the flow in the interaction region. Therefore, the results at present available have mainly been obtained experimentally [1, 2]. Among the theoretical studies made in this direction, it is necessary to mention Ivanov and Nazarov's [3], which gives the results of numerical investigation of “lateral” interaction of a jet with obstacles of various shapes in the case of weakly underexpanded jets when the flow in the interaction region is everywhere supersonic. In the present paper, a study is made of the case when a jet exhausts into vacuum and in front of the obstacle there is a detached shock wave, behind which there is mixed subsonic and supersonic three-dimensional flow.
