Summary

We calculate the supersonic air flow hitting the wall at an angle for 0.001 seconds.

The air flows in from the region "freestream" at 2713 m/s and out from the region "outlet". The region "cone" is a wall. Only side A in the figure below has no thickness, and the entire analysis region is wedge-shaped.

Model geometry Model geometry

For the wall of the region "cone", we use a Maxwell slip model that can represent multiple slip states depending on the temperature and curvature of the surface.

The turbulence model is not used, and the calculation is performed as a pseudo 2-dimensional mesh with one mesh in the circumferential direction of the wedge. And a converged solution is used as the initial condition.

The meshes are as follows, and the number of mesh is 32385.

The calculation result is as follows.

Flow velocity at final time (U) Flow velocity at final time (U)
Pressure at final time (p) Pressure at final time (p)

We can see that the slip state changes discontinuously on a region "cone".
