Abstract

This chapter is dedicated to the presentation of supersonic applications for which the mean field does not contain flow discontinuities. Nonetheless, shocklets which are related to turbulent fluctuations can occur in particular in supersonic homogeneous turbulence computations. Shock/turbulence interactions will be treated in the next chapter. This chapter follows essentially the same outline than the previous one. No LES of supersonic shear layers was found in the literature. Moreover, on the subject of supersonic cavity flow only one paper was found [Rizzetta and Visbal in AIAA J. 41(8):1452–1462, 2003], and no extensive discussion of this application case is included.
