Combined effect of nozzle pressure ratio and screech prone supersonic mach number in a suddenly expanded flow

This paper presents the results of an experimental study to evaluate the effectiveness of the micro jets to control the base pressure in a suddenly expanded flow at supersonic Mach numbers. Four micro jets of 1mm orifice diameter located at 90 intervals along a pitch circle diameter of 1.3 times th...
