Abstract

Results of the benchmark test are presented of comparing numerical schemes solving shock wave of M s = 2.38 in nitrogen and argon interacting with a 43° semi-apex angle cone and corresponding experiments. The benchmark test was announced in Shock Waves Vol. 12, No. 4, in which we tried to clarify the effects of viscosity and heat conductivity on shock reflection in conical flows. This paper summarizes results of ten numerical and two experimental applications. State of the art in studies regarding the shock/cone interaction is clarified.
