MINOR UPDATED on 08/30/95


Brief Description

The test is proposed for evaluating codes for the analysis of shock-shock interaction. The interaction of an impinging shock generated by a ramp and the bow shock around a circular cylinder (Edney type IV) with significant dissociation of the molecular nitrogen component of air is the key interest here. This test case is based upon experimental results from the HEG wind tunnel in Goettingen.
