Abstract

Supersonic perfect gas flow in plane and axisymmetric channels with the same duct contour is studied on the basis of a numerical solution of the two-dimensional Navier-Stokes and Euler equations. The calculations were carried out at an inlet Mach number M=4 for various Reynolds numbers and “bell-mouth“ half-angles. The effect of these parameters, as well as that of the flow three-dimensionality, on the flow pattern is demonstrated. In particular, the existence of viscous flow regimes providing the most effective supersonic flow deceleration and a higher degree of total pressure recovery as compared with the inviscid flow is established.
