Summary
Recent research has removed much of the mystery from swept shock wave/boundary-layer interactions. Firstly, insofar as many of these interactions are quasiconical, the powerful simplification arises that one need not necessarily treat them as inherently 3-D flows. Secondly, optical studies have shown the flowfield structure to be dominated by processes of shock-wave bifurcation and resulting jet impingement. The purpose of this note is mainly to point out the close relationship of such interaction structures with other problematic shock-bifurcation phenomena which have been regarded as separate issues in the past. These include leading-edge or shock-on-shock interactions, shock-interaction-induced test-gas contamination in shock tubes, and the so-called “airblast precursor” effect.
