Computational and Experimental Interferometric Analysis of a Cone-Cylinder-Flare Body

Authors: John R. Cipolla

A series of computational fluid dynamic (CFD) analysis and experiment is discussed that probes the interaction between multiple shock waves and the adjacent boundary layer at high supersonic speed. For a cone-cylinder-flare configuration the viscous boundary layer and its interaction with the outer flow field is computationally determined and then compared to an experimental technique using holographic interferometry. Ultimately, the base flow region of a projectile can be modeled using CFD and its results compared to experimental interferometric data during the validation stage of code development.
