Testing Numerical Calculation Methods and Programs by Estimating the Heat Flux in the Area of a Separated Flow due to Shock Wave on a Flat Sharp Plate with a Mounted Vertical Sharp Wedge

Experimental technique of the Central Aerohydrodynamic Institute as well as various methods and programs for calculating heat fluxes in the area of a separated flow due to shock wave on a flat plate with a mounted vertical sharp wedge are described. A series of test calculations have been conducted. The physical features of the flow have been investigated as well as calculated and experimental data have been compared. Estimates of the tested programs accuracy have been obtained.
