Influence of the adiabatic index on switching between different types of shock wave reflection in a steady supersonic gas flow

A comprehensive pattern of different types of shock wave reflection in a steady supersonic gas flow is analytically constructed with regard to a new wave configuration found by the authors-negative-angle irregular reflection. A double Mach reflection with a negative reflection angle in a steady supe...

Summary:A comprehensive pattern of different types of shock wave reflection in a steady supersonic gas flow is analytically constructed with regard to a new wave configuration found by the authors-negative-angle irregular reflection. A double Mach reflection with a negative reflection angle in a steady supersonic gas flow is numerically obtained for the first time.
