Abstract

An implicit numerical algorithm to solve the unsteady thin-layer Navier-Stokes equations in a strong conservative form has been used to compute the viscous flow over indented nose tips placed in a supersonic free stream. Numerical solutions are presented for axisymmetric and three-dimensional indented configurations for laminar flow conditions. Results demonstrate the capability of the present numerical procedure to predict flow fields that contain strong viscous-inviscid interactions, including boundary-layer separation, reattachment, and embedded discontinuities. Comparisons with available experimental data for the shock shape and surface pressure are also given.
