11.3 Because of the curved shock wave attached to the tip of the body, the flowfield between
the body and the shock is rotational. However, to illustrate the application of the method of
characteristics to an external flow problem in the most simple manner possible, we will assume
here that the shock curvature in the vicinity of the body is not large, and consequently assume the
flow to be essentially irrotational. Hence, the compatibility equations from Section 11.4 will be
used. After this approach is understood, the extension to the accurate rotational solution (Section
11.9) can be made. Also for simplicity, we will consider a two-dimensional body.
1. Assume the top of the pointed body is a wedge with angle w equal to the tip angle.
This provides a known, uniform flow region to begin the solution. In the above sketch, the
wedge surface is 0-1, the known straight oblique shock is 0-5, and line 1-5 is a left-running
characteristic from point 1. Line 1-5 is the initial data line, along which the flow is known at all
105
points from the oblique shock solution. Choose some arbitrary points along 1-5, say points 2, 3,
and 4.
intersecting at pt. 7. Calculate the flow at 7 using the internal unit process. Repeat the same for
pts. 8 and 9.
4. Draw a C+ characteristic through pt. 9, and determine the location of the shock wave
5. At this stage, all properties have been found along the left-running characteristic 6-10.
Repeat the above process for the next downstream left-running characteristic, 11-14. You will
note that the characteristic mesh is beginning to widen, and the points are becoming farther apart.
For example, add pt. A, and draw a C- characteristic from pt. a. This will introduce another
6. Repeat the above process until the base of the body is encountered.
