A Computational Study of the Supersonic Cavity Flow

A computational analysis has been conducted to investigate the detailed flow structure inside a supersonic cavity. The free stream Mach number and Reynolds number are 1.83 and $6.02\times10^5$ respectively. In the present study, the depth and width of the cavity are changed to investigate the effect of the cavity dimensions. A fully implicit finite volume scheme is applied to solve the three-dimensional, steady, unsteady, compressible, Navier-Stokes equations. The computed results are validated with the previous experimental data available. The present computation provides reasonable predictions of the cavity flow, compared with experimental results. The obtained results show that a shock wave is generated in front of the downstream edge of the cavity and the dominant frequencies of the pressure oscillations inside the cavity were obtained.
