Abstract
In this paper, an implicitly implemented high order large eddy simulation by using the fifth order bandwidth-optimized WENO scheme is applied to make comprehensive studies on ramp flows with and without control at Mach 2.5 and Reθ = 5760. Flow control in the form of microramp vortex generators (MVG) is applied. The mechanism of vortex ring generation behind MVG has been studied in detail and shear layer instability has been studied and found as the mechanism of K-H vortex ring generation. A series of new observations on the flow around supersonic MVG have been made including inflection points (surface in 3-D), vorticity conservation, interaction of the primary vortex and new generated K-H vortex rings, and the K-H vortex ring structure. The numerical observations have been confirmed by the experimental work.
