Abstract

The obvious unsteady flow characteristics of the flow field around the spiked blunt-body have negative effect on the drag reduction of vehicle and the thermo-protection of the head. The hypersonic self-sustained oscillatory flow was numerical simulated, and the flow structure and mechanism of the three process of one cycle: collapse, inflation and withhold, were discussed in detail. The correspondence between the drag coefficient curve and the different flow structure was obtained, which will provide basis to the drag reduction and thermo-protection of hypersonic blunt-body vehicle through flow control in the future.
