Abstract

The time-dependent two-dimensional perfect gas flow which occurs in a channel with a constant cross-section as a result of the transverse withdrawal of a diaphragm to provide an initial pressure difference is studied numerically using a second-order-accurate method. The evolution and interaction of the main wave disturbances is analyzed in detail on the basis of the solutions obtained.
