Abstract: The shock waves/turbulent boundary layer interaction is a problem of critical importance that is frequently encountered in designing flying vehicles. Presently, the most topical issue is the investigation of nonstationary phenomena (in particular, low-frequency effects) involved in this interaction. We have experimentally studied separated flows in the zone of interaction between an obliquely incident shock wave and a turbulent boundary layer at a Mach number of M = 2. Correlation data in the separation zone and the upstream flow were obtained. It is established that low-frequency oscillations in the reflected shock are related to the pulsation in the inflow boundary layer.
