Abstract

An unstructured grid solver implemented in the BCFD code has been applied to simulate the effect of a micro-ramp on oblique shock wave/boundary layer interactions. Specifically, the micro-ramp's ability to prevent inlet unstart was examined. The 3D Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations were solved by an implicit time-marching method. Starting from a steady-state solution at a freestream Mach number of 2.0, the upstream boundary condition was perturbed to simulate a disturbance upstream of the oblique shock wave/boundary layer interaction. The reaction of the flow field to this disturbance was examined for cases with and without a micro-ramp. The results are in agreement with the previous findings of Anderson et al.
