Effect of Off-Body Laser Discharge on Drag Reduction of Hemisphere Cylinder in Supersonic Flow-Part IIThe interaction of on-axis and o -axis laser discharge in front of a hemisphere cylinder in Mach 2.0 ow is investigated numerically. Details of the physics of the interaction of the laser-induced shock and the heated region with the bow shock and its e ect on drag reduction are included. The energetic eciency of the laser discharge in reducing drag is calculated.
