Flow control via instabilities, vortices and steady structures under the action of external microwave energy release

Abstract: The details of flow dynamics during the interaction of a microwave filament (regarded as heated rarefied channel) with an aerodynamic body in supersonic flow are considered. Flow control via the effect on the frontal drag force is discussed. The mechanisms of the drag force reduction for a symmetrically located filament and temporary drag force enhancement for an asymmetrically located filament are established. These mechanisms are attributable to the vortex structures forming via the instabilities in front of… Show more

“…The rarified channel is set to have the same static pressure and velocity as the rest of the domain thus, based on the ideal gas law, the temperature is increased due to the lower density. This methodology has been used in a number of studies by Azarova et al [138][139][140] This study also went some way to validate the results of the computations by comparing them to experimental results of Lashkov et al, 130 however this was limited to the generated microwave filament and not its effects on the flow.…”

“…Effects of a local heating on wave drag reduction were investigated in [12][13][14]. Additionally, it has been stated that the triple-shock configurations accompanied by the vortex-contact structures were generated at the beginning stage of the process of energy release-shock layer interaction when the flow mode is close to the self-similar one [15][16][17].…”
