Abstract
Specific features of shock wave interaction in a viscous heat-conducting gas with a low ratio of specific heats are numerically studied. The case of the Mach reflection of shock waves with a negative angle of the reflected wave with respect to the free-stream velocity vector is considered, and the influence of viscosity on the flow structure is analyzed. Various issues of nonuniqueness of the shock wave configuration for different Reynolds numbers are discussed. Depending on the initial conditions and Reynolds numbers, two different shock wave configurations may exist: regular configuration interacting with an expansion fan and Mach configuration. In the dual solution domain, a possibility of the transition from regular to the Mach reflection of shock waves is considered.
