Within the dynamic realm of variable-geometry shock wave/boundary layer interactions, the wall parameters of the flow field undergo real-time fluctuations. The conventional approach to sensing these changes in wall pressure through sensor measurements is encumbered by a cumbersome process, leading to diminished efficiency and an inability to provide swift predictions of wall parameters. This paper introduces a data-driven methodology that leverages non-contact schlieren imaging to predict wall pressure within the flow field, a technique that holds promise for informing the optimized design of variable-geometry systems. A sophisticated deep learning framework, predicated on Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), has been engineered to anticipate alterations in wall pressure stemming from high-speed shock wave/boundary layer interactions. Utilizing an impulsive wind tunnel with a Mach number of 6, we have procured a sequence of schlieren images and corresponding wall pressure measurements, capturing the continuous variations induced by an attack angle from a shock wave generator. These data have been instrumental in compiling a comprehensive dataset for the training and evaluation of the CNN. The CNN model, once trained, has adeptly deduced the distribution of wall pressure from the schlieren imagery. Notwithstanding, it was observed that the CNN’s predictive prowess is marginally diminished in regions where pressure variations are most pronounced. To assess the model’s generalization capabilities, we have segmented the dataset according to different temporal intervals for network training. Our findings indicate that while the generalization of all models crafted was less than optimal, Model 4 demonstrated superior generalization. It is thus suggested that augmenting the training set with additional samples and refining the network architecture will be a worthwhile endeavor in subsequent research initiatives.
