3D Large Eddy Simulations (LES) are performed for different initial shock Mach number. The Ghost Fluid Method (GFM) allows the use of an inner cylindrical finite radius to regularize the apex. The initial perturbation of the interface has an "egg-carton" shape () in both axial and azimuthal direction, on which a smaller symmetry breaking perturbation with random phase is superposed.
More computational details:
Two different simulations are shown, corresponding to two different initial Mach numbers:
As an example, 3 snapshots from the run are taken at 3 different times of the simulation (for an initial shock interaction at a radius of 1 m):
Initial state (t=0 ms). | After the first shock interaction (t=1.45 ms). | After the first reshock (t=5.13 ms). |
