Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

High-speed gas flows occur during the movement of aircrafts, rockets, descent vehicles, as well as in combustion chambers, nozzles and in many other technological applications. High-speed flows are characterized by a complex shock–vortex structure and the presence of large gradients of gas parameters due to the emerging shock waves, areas of shear deformations and the possible development of gas-dynamic instabilities. This Special Issue of Fluids is focused on the recent advances in the numerical and experimental modeling of high-speed flows. The planned topics include (but are not limited to) the following areas: supersonic/hypersonic flows, flow control, shock waves, turbulence, vortices and vortex structures, boundary layers, heat fluxes, gas-dynamic instabilities.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Fluids is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1800 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.

The results of a numerical solution of the problem of supersonic flow past a blunt fin mounted on a plate with a developing boundary layer are presented. The initial formulation of the problem is based on the presented in the literature computational and experimental investigation, in which the laminar flow regime was studied for the fin perpendicular to the plate at the free-stream Mach number equal to 6.7. Earlier, the authors showed (2020) that under these conditions there exist two stable solutions to the problem. These solutions correspond to the metastable states of flow with different configurations of the vortex structure and different patterns of local heat transfer. In the present study, the influence of a temperature ratio on the vortex structure in the separation region, local heat transfer, and the possibility of obtaining a dual solution are investigated. The ability to switch between solutions of two types using a short-time change in the plate temperature ratio are shown. Full article

As humans continue to explore the aerospace field, higher demands have been placed on new types of propulsion systems. Meanwhile, active secondary flow has been applied to various aspects of engines over the past seventy years, significantly enhancing engine performance. For the new generation of propulsion systems, active secondary flow remains a highly promising technology. This article provides an overview of the application of active secondary flow in engines, including a review of the past research on the secondary jet flow field, and an introduction of the more prominent applications of the jet in engines and its research progress. Finally, the problems existing in the current application of the secondary jet are summarized, and the future direction of the research is anticipated. Full article
