Abstract

Hypersonic perfect gas flow past the weakly curved end face of a circular cylinder is considered in the thin shock layer approximation. Regimes in which the shape of the end face is not a monotonic function of the radius but contains, for example, a central body of variable height are studied. It is found that, as the central body is extended, a break is formed in the slope of the shock. Smoothing takes place in a short zone of interaction between the main part of the thin shock layer, the shock, and the small near-wall potential jet. The solution, which depends continuously on a parameter, exists over a limited height range and bifurcates when a critical value is exceeded.
