Abstract
The supersonic flow over an axisymmetric rearward facing step, placed on the circumference of an axisymmetric body of a 6 in. diameter, has been experimentally investigated by Roshko and Thomke, [1]. Among other flow conditions, they have published measurements for three different step heights, namely 0.25, 1.02 and 1.675 in., at an external flow Mach number equal to 2.09.
