Abstract
The shock wave is a discontinuous profile of rapidly varied flow. A series of shock waves in channel contraction are numerically simulated and their results are verified using experimental data. Based on time- and space-marching approaches, two high-resolution finite-difference numerical schemes are applied for simulation of two-dimensional oblique shock waves. To initiate the simulation, the body-fitted coordinate transformation is employed to fit the channel boundary geometry, which is then followed by a set of well designed and controlled numerical simulations. The experimental data of Ippen and TPWCB are used to examine the validity of numerical results.
