Introduction
Motivation
Motivation
High Enthalpy, Low-Density Separated Flows
Better understanding of viscous flow in thermal nonequilibrium — critical to
successful vehicle design
Typical flow separation configurations — compression corners, flat-plates with steps,
blunt bodies
Configurations all have a pre-existing boundary layer at separation — increased
complexity and not accounted for in analytical descriptions
‘Tick’ (or ‘Check’) Geometric Configuration
Capable of producing separation at leading-edge without pre-existing boundary layer
Originally proposed by Chapman et al. (1958) for high Re and low M∞ flows
Considered here for low-density laminar high-enthalpy hypersonic conditions
Approach to the Problem
Comparisons between 3D Navier-Stokes and 2D Direct Simulation Monte Carlo
(DSMC) calculations
Using a suite of flowfield diagnostics to investigate thermal state of flowfield

Chapman’s Isentropic Re-compression Theory
Chapman et al. (1958) proposed a separated flow model and developed a theory to
estimate the base pressure (Pd )
Experimental evidence at high supersonic Mach numbers suggests that the model
works remarkably well even for pre-existing boundary layer in estimating base
pressure
In hypersonic high temperature flows, the efficacy of Chapman’s isentropic
recompression model is not “rigorously” verified
Here, the same leading edge separation model used by Chapman is considered

Simple isentropic flow assumption does not appear to hold in hypersonic flow
Streamlines in the shear layer do not recompress isentropically at reattachment, rather
extend over a finite region
Steep isentropic recompression assumption in theory seems unrealistic in low Re flows with
thick shear layers

Driver Gas Detection
Driver Gas Contamination Measurements
Characteristics of Contamination
Contamination is strongly dependent on piston
motion tuning and interaction of reflected shock
wave and contact surface between driver and
test gases
Test time is significantly shorter than mass flux
alone would indicate
Test time may fluctuate from one tunnel run to
the next
Driver gas is argon/helium mixture — no
absorption lines
Use absorption in water vapour as an inverse
measurement

Driver Gas Detection
TDLAS Measurements
Diode Laser Absorption Measurements
Assumptions
The water vapour concentration is constant in the test gas
Reduction in water concentration produces an equivalent increase in driver gas
Lines are Doppler broadened
At 280–380 Pa, this is a good assumption
FWHMDoppler = 3.12 pm, Voigt fit only 3 % different
No change in temperature during the test time
Not true, but can be corrected for with simultaneous measured temperature

Contamination vs time
(a) Condition E
(b) Condition A
Driver gas time
There is a region of constant concentration where the test gas passes through the
nozzle
A gradual decrease followed by an increase in H2 O at later times
The increase occurs due to test gas reflecting from the end of the dump tank
Test time is considerably shorter than the mass flux estimates of 5 ms and 2.5 ms for
conditions E and A respectively

Conclusions
Conclusions
Computations
Lower enthalpy (higher freestream density) condition E : DSMC predicted a 15 %
larger separated region. Pressure, shear stress and heat flux show similar features.
Higher enthalpy (lower freestream density) condition A : N-S results predicted a
clearly separated region whereas the DSMC indicated a much smaller region
DSMC smaller separation for condition A is attributed to the fact that the DSMC
calculations take slip effects into account
Isentropic recompression theory of Chapman may not be adequate in hypersonic
high enthalpy low Reynolds number flows
Experiments
We have developed a method for measuring H2 O concentration and inferring driver
gas contamination using tuneable diode laser absorption spectroscopy. This is the
first of a number of techniques to be brought to bear on this problem.
Provides on-line measurement on each tunnel run, while other experiments are
running
Flow duration at condition E is sufficient, but is borderline at condition A. May need
to reduce forebody size to compensate for this.

Conclusions
Challenges
Challenges
Things to consider. . .
Need more collaboration from Navier-Stokes method experts
Would be interested in co-operating with larger/higher-enthalpy facilities on this
configuration
Need to develop good information transfer between experimental and computational
investigators
Need to know what measured properties are particularly important for testing
computational techniques
Previous experimental data shows early transition to turbulence in free shear layers
Main practical problem is manpower
CARS will take a long time to set up and characterize, and requires development of
nonequilibrium CARS spectral models. It is a low-yield method.
PLIF velocimetry requires lots of tunnel runs
