Abstract

The model of microwave (MW) filament is used for consideration of the effect of MW discharge energy deposition on supersonic flows past combined cylinder bodies. Flow details accompanying streamlining bodies "hemisphere-cylinder" and "hemisphere-cone-cylinder" are simulated numerically for an inviscid perfect gas at Mach 2.1. Attempts for optimization of the shapes and parameters of the area of heated gas resulting from MW energy deposition have been realized taking into account the flow analysis and the comparison with the experimental data. Mechanisms of the stagnation pressure decrease are discussed. Estimations of the value of MW energy needed for generating filaments with the obtained parameters are provided.
