Dependence of steady Mach reflections on the reflecting-wedge trailing-edge angle

Two simultaneous numerical investigations, using different codes, were conducted. The numerical method, in the first study, was the LCPFCT algorithm, which is a one-dimensional flux corrected transport algorithm, for solving generalized continuity equations, with fourth-order phase accuracy and minimum residual diffusion. A computer code based on a W-modified Godunov's scheme was developped and used in the second study. To complement these numerical studies, an experimental study was also conducted
