At transonic flight conditions, the buffet caused by the interaction between the shock waves and the boundary layers can degrade an aircraft?s aerodynamic performance and even threaten its safety. In this paper, the shock control bumps, originally design...

The unsteady flow characteristics of a supercritical OAT15A airfoil with a shock control bump were numerically studied by a wall-modeled large eddy simulation. The numerical method was first validated by the buffet and nonbuffet cases of the baseline OAT...
