On the inception lengths of swept shock-wave/turbulent boundary-layer interactionsExperimental data are shown for the inception lengths of swept compression corner-generated and fin-generated shock/boundary layer interactions at Mach 2.95. These results are found to correlate on the basis of three different flow regimes. The inception lengths of these flows are dominated by a singularity at the cylindrical/conical boundary for swept corners and by an elongation due to shock wave sweepback for fin interactions. Similarity rules for both Re(delta)and shock generator geometry effects on inception lengths are demonstrated.
