Shock wave/boundary layer interaction in a 24° turning angle of the compression ramp at Mach number 2.9 controlled by steady microjet is investigated using direct numerical simulation. Three different jet spacings which are termed as sparse, moderate and dense are considered, and the induced vortex system and shock structures are compared. A moderate jet spacing configuration is found to generate counter-rotating vortex pairs that transport high-momentum fluid towards the vicinity of wall and strengthen the boundary layer to resist separation, reducing the separation region. The dense jet spacing configuration creates a larger momentum deficit region, reducing the friction downstream of the corner. Analysis of pressure and pressure gradient reveals that dense jet spacing configuration reduces the intensity of separation shock. The impact of varying jet spacings on the turbulent kinetic energy transport mechanism is also investigated by decomposing the budget terms in the transport equation. Furthermore, the spectral characteristics of the separation region are studied using power spectral density and dynamic mode decomposition methods, revealing that moderate jet spacing configuration suppresses low-frequency fluctuations in the separation region.
