Supersonic laminar flow development in a square duct

Abstract

Supersonic laminar flow development in a constant-area square duct exhibits as one of its distinguishing features the formation of two contrarotating secondary flow vortices centered about the corner bisector. This phenomenon does not occur in unbounded corner flow. The secondary flow causes an outward bulging of total pressure contours in the vicinity of the corner bisector for wholly attached flow conditions.
