The numerical research on the the transition of the three-Dimensional supersonic spatial developing mixing layer when Mc=0.5
In this paper, a fourth order difference scheme based on frequency spectrum relation preservation and developed boundary processing methods are used to make simulations on the three- dimensional supersonic spatial developing mixing layer when the convective Mach number Mc=0.5. The researches show that, when imposing three-dimensional disturbances, large scale vortices sizes are developed and the ow evolves into turbulence by transition finally. In the process, ow pat- terns are characterized as the vortex splitting, vortex ribs and hairpin vortices, and the ow evolves into turbulence through the lift-up and breakdown of hairpin vortices. The preliminary statistics show that the ow has the features of turbulence through statistical analysis. The simulations also show that, the vortex-pairing patterns are absent in the evolution of the mixing layer unlike the two- dimensional counterparts, new features especially like the vortex splitting and stream-wise vortices (ribs and hairpin vortices) are dominant in the evolving process.
