Notes:
The head-on collision and subsequent reflection of a Regular Reflection (RR) from the end-wall of a shock tube has been investigated both experimentally and numerically for two different incident shock wave Mach numbers and two different reflecting wedge angles.The agreement between the double-exposure holographic interferograms and the numerical simulations which were obtained using a GRP based numerical code, was found to be excellent in the RR region and very good behind the head-on reflected RR.The overall good agreement between the computed and experimental constant-density contours (isopycnics) constitutes a validation of the computational method, including the oblique-wall boundary condition.
