However, the analysis and prediction of interaction lengths have not been sufficiently investigated. First, this study presents a theoretical scaling analysis and validates it through wind tunnel experiments. It conducts detailed control volume analysis of mass conservation, considering the differences between inviscid and viscous cases. Then, three models for analysing interaction length under gradual expansion waves are derived. Related experiments using schlieren photography are conducted to validate the models in a Mach 2.73 flow. The interaction scales are captured at various relative distances between the shock impingement location and the expansion regions with wedge angles ranging from 12° to 15° and expansion angles of 9°, 12°, and 15°. Three trend lines are plotted based on different expansion angles to depict the relationship between normalised interaction length and normalised interaction strength metric. In addition, the relationship between the coefficients of the trend line and the expansion angles is introduced to predict the interaction length influenced by gradual expansion waves. Finally, the estimation of normalised interaction length is derived for various coefficients within a unified form.展开更多

文摘We investigate the smoothing effect of the spatially inhomogeneous Boltzmann equation without an angular cut-off,under the Navier-Stokes scaling.For Maxwellian molecules or hard potentials with singular angular kernels,we demonstrate that the solutions become analytic at positive times when the angular singularities are sufficiently strong and lie within the optimal Gevrey class when the singularities are mild.The analysis is based on carefully selected vector fields with time-dependent coefficients and quantitative estimates of directional derivatives,which reveal the behavior of the kinetic-fluid transition.
