abstract
The current status of basic research in hypersonic turbulent ows is reviewed. We consider free shear layers, boundary layers, internal flows and shock-wave boundary layer interactions, and discuss experiments as well as computations, including DNS, LES, RANS and RANS-LES hybrid approaches. Important research challenges in external and internal hypersonic flows are identified and some possible future directions are explored. Some recent experimental and computational contributions are summarized. Copyright Alexander J. Smits, M. Pino Martin, Sharath Girimaji.
