Abstract:

The two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations were solved using high-precision schemes, and the basic structure of the flow field in the supersonic flow and jet flow at different flight altitudes was studied. The three-order Runge-Kutta scheme was adopted in the time-marching scheme. The five-order weighted essentially non-oscillatory (WENO) and the six-order central difference schemes were used to discretize the convection term and viscous term, respectively. The parallel computation was performed using MPI non-blocking communication. The basic structural characteristics of backward-facing step flow and jet flow under backward-facing steps at different flight altitudes were studied. Furthermore, by combining the two flows, the flow field structure of the interaction between the supersonic flow and jet flow was studied. The supersonic flow above the backward-facing step was changed to simulate the environment of different flight altitudes, and the environment affected structures such as vortices, shear layers, and shock waves in the flow field. It was observed that after the interaction between the supersonic flow and jet flow, a recirculation zone was generated near the back step, and the presence of supersonic flow affected the structures of the jet flow.
