Abstract
Present investigations are focused on the study of effects of dimensional and parametric changes in shock wave boundary layer interaction (SWBLI) for an axisymmetric double wedge with leading edge bluntness in hypersonic flows. This study is specifically the point of interest since it attributes most of the characteristics of the hypersonic flow around the atmosphere re-entry vehicles. Successfully implemented simulations in hypersonic flow are in a double wedge configuration, to study shock wave boundary layer interaction in hypersonic flows. Inversion radius was found at different deflection angles for change in leading edge radius (LER). It was found that for lower deflection angle Crocco’s theorem affect the flow early compared to higher deflection angles. Shock-shock Interaction-I (SSI I) and Shock-shock Interaction-II (SSI II) shifts downstream with increase in leading edge radius.
