This paper describes a supersonic separation of air-launching rocket from the mother plane. Three dimensional Euler equations were numerically solved to analyze steady/unsteady state fluid flows. To solve the Euler equations, named CFD-FASTRAN that is commercial computation code. The results of simulation clearly demonstrate effect of shock-expansion wave interaction between the rocket and the mother plane. Moreover, important influential factors at separating stage of the rocket were extracted with a comprehensive analysis. Finally, from the consideration of supersonic-separation, a guideline to safety-separation is given to the design of supersonic air-launching rocket.

An analysis is made of flow and rocket motion during a supersonic separation stage of air-launching rocket from the mother plane. Three-dimensional Euler and Navier-Stokes equations are numerically solved to analyze the steady/unsteady flow field around the rocket which is being separated from two cases of mother plane configuration: one is an idealized ogive-cylinder body and the other is a real F-4E Phantom. The simulation results clearly demonstrate the effect of shock-expansion wave interaction between the rocket and the mother plane. As a result, a design-guideline of supersonic air-launching rocket for the safe separation is proposed.

An analysis is made of flow and rocket motion during a supersonic separation stage of air-launching rocket(ALR) from the mother plane. Three-dimensional compressible Navier-Stokes equations is numerically solved to analyze the steady/unsteady flow field around the rocket which is being separated from the mother plane configuration(F-4E Phantom). The simulation results clearly demonstrate the effect of shock-expansion wave interaction between the rocket and the mother plane. To predict the behavior of the ALR according to the change of the C.G., three cases of numerical analysis are performed. As a result, a design-guideline of supersonic air-launching rocket for the safe separation is proposed.

An assessment of two-equation turbulence models, the low Reynolds k-${\varepsilon}$ and k-${\omega}$ SST models, with the compressibility corrections proposed by Sarkar and Wilcox, has been performed. The compressibility models are evaluated by investigating transonic or supersonic flows, including the arc-bump, transonic diffuser, supersonic jet impingement, and unsteady supersonic diffuser. A unified implicit finite volume scheme, consisting of mass, momentum, and energy conservation equations, is used, and the results are compared with experimental data. The model accuracy is found to depend strongly on the flow separation behavior. An MPI (Message Passing Interface) parallel computing scheme is implemented.

A great number of experimental data indicating shock-induced separation(SIS) in internal or external supersonic flows were reviewed to make clear the mechanism of SIS and to present the criterion of turbulent boundary layer separation. The interesting conclusions were obtained for the considerably wide range of flow geometries that the incipient separation is almost independent of the flow geometries, and that it is relatively unaffected by changes in gas specific heat, and boundary layer Reynolds number, Furthermore, the pressure rise necessary to separate boundary layer in external flows was found to be applicable to SIS in overexpanded propulsion nozzles. This is due to the fact that the SIS phenomenon caused by the interaction between shock waves and turbulent boundary layers is processed through a supersonic deceleration. This is, the SIS in almost all of interacting flow fields is governed by the concept of free interaction, and criterion of SIS is only a Function of upstream Mach number.

An analysis is made for flow and rocket motion during a supersonic separation stage of an air-launching rocket(ALR) from the mother plane. Three-dimensional compressible Navier-Stokes equations are numerically solved to analyze the steady/unsteady flow fields around the rocket which is being separated from the mother plane configuration(F-4E Phantom). Simulation results clearly demonstrate the effect of shock-expansion wave interaction around both of the rocket and the mother plane. To predict the behavior of the ALR by the change of the center-of-gravity, three cases of numerical analysis are performed. As a result, a design-guideline of supersonic air-launching rockets for safe separation is proposed.

The problem of the impingement of a sonic or a supersonic jet on a flat surface has not only wide applications but has also interesting and very complex flow phenomena. The main applications of this impinging jet include prediction of solid surface erosion, design of launcher systems, stage separation of multi-stage rocket system, V/STOL operations, thermal spray system, and manufacturing technologies of materials. Much have been learned about the supersonic impinging jet flow field but many fundamental questions have not been answered satisfactorily. The problem encompasses many facets of fluid dynamics which, in combination, present the compressibility effect and the viscous-inviscid interaction, coupled with flow separation and reattachment. What is more, there are many flow parameters that have on the impinging jet flow field, for example, Mach number, Reynolds number, pressure ratio, distance between the nozzle exit and flat plate, jet shock structure, nozzle diameter and etc. Thus the existing data on the supersonic impinging jet flow present considerable disagreement in which quantitative comparison between one result and another is often impossible.

A shock-wave in a supersonic flow can be theoretically determined by a given pressure ratio at upstream and downstream flowfields, and then the obtained shock-wave is stable in its position. Under the practical situation in which the shock-wave interacts with the boundary layer along a solid wall, it cannot, however, be stable even for the given pressure ratio being independent of time and oscillates around a time-mean position. In the present study, oscillations of a weak normal shock-wave in a supersonic diffuser were measured by a Line Image Sensor(LIS), and they were compared with the data of the wall pressure fluctuations at the foot of the shock-wave interacting with the wall boundary layer. LIS was incorporated into a conventional schlieren optical system and its signal, instantaneous displacement of the interacting shock-wave, was analyzed by a statistical method. The results show that the displacement of an oscillating shock-wave increase with the upstream Mach number and the dominant frequency components of the oscillating shock-wave are below 200 Hz. Measurements indicated that shock-wave oscillations may not entirely be caused by the boundary layer separation. The statistical properties of oscillations appeared, however, to be significantly affected by shock-induced separation of turbulent boundary layer.
