This tutorial example sets up and solves supersonic compressible flow around a triangular prism, with viscous effects and turbulence using the OpenFOAM solver.
The inflow is supersonic at 650 m/s causing shock waves to form when the flow field impacts the prism, and also secondary waves following the trailing edges and wake.
This model is available as an automated tutorial by selecting Model Examples and Tutorials… > Fluid Dynamics > Supersonic Turbulent Flow Past a Prism from the File menu. Step-by-step tutorial instructions to set up and run this model are linked below.
