Abstract:The structure of the flow in an inlet with three-dimensional compression and an adjoining channel of rectangular cross-section is experimentally investigated for the external flow parameters M ∞ = 4 and Re ≈ 52 · 10 6 1/m. The phenomenon of vortex generation in the air-intake and its breakdown at the channel entry, where it encounters an elevated pressure gradient, is studied
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
