Abstract

The flows developing in the interaction of a supersonic gas stream with a continuously operating axisymmetric energy release source or as a result of the action of pulsed periodic energy injection on a subsonic gas stream are investigated numerically. For a continuously operating energy source two types of flow can be distinguished: with a shock wave detached from the source and with a shock attached to it. Approximate formulas for the gas density in the center of the energy release zone are obtained for the cases of constantly operating and periodic energy sources.
