Supersonic Flow Over a Wedge

Created using ANSYS 13.0

Problem Specification

Consider a 15° angle wedge at zero angle of attack. The incoming flow conditions are: M1=3, p1=1 atm, T1=300 K. Use FLUENT to obtain the flowfield over the wedge. Compare the pressure coefficient on the wedge surface with the corresponding analytical result for an oblique shock.
