Abstract:

To reveal shock wave entrainment of particles on a wall, simulation is carried out for raising of single particle on a wall behind a shock wave perpendicular to the wall. The particle is assumed air-born(depart from the wall immediately) at initial time, and is acted by gravity, gas resistance, and Saffman force. The model equation is a combination of boundary layer equations of gases behind shock wave and ordinary differential equations describing movement of the particle. A single parameter method and a 4-order Rung-Kutta method are employed to solve boundary layer equations and particle movement equations, respectively. Calculated particle velocities and their tracks show that the basic dynamic of particle entraining is from Saffman force provided by strong shear flows in boundary layer. The raising height of particle is independent of intensity of the shock wave. It changes with size of the particle. Calculated results agree with experimental results in references. It validates the model and the assumptions.

Key words: shock wave, particle, boundary layer, Saffman force
