Abstract

Results of experiments investigating shock wave reflections from wedges having sawtooth roughness of 0.1 mm, 0.2 mm, 0.8 mm, and 2.0 mm are presented. Observations based on direct shadowgraph diagnostic revealed that for wedges whose inclination angle was close to the critical transition angle, the foot of the incident shock interacted locally with the sawtooth steps and merged with the part of shock waves reflected from the sawtooth walls. This trend was observed for all the sawtooth wedges.
