Mach Reflection, Mach Disc, and the Associated Nozzle Free Jet Flows

The numerical method involving both the method of integral relations and the method of characteristics have been applied to investigate the steady flow phenomena associated with the accurrence of Mach reflection and Mach disc from nozzle flows. The solutions of triple-shock intersection are presented. The regime where Mach configuration appears is defines for the inviscid analysis. The method of integral relations developed for the blunt body problem is modified and extended to the attached shock wave and to internal nozzle flow problems.
