Shock wave impacts on deforming panel, an application of fluid-structure interaction
Résumé
Because of the lack of fluid-structure interaction FSI test cases, particularly for transient compressible flows, the present paper deals with a numerical and experimental study of the behaviour of a cantilever panel submitted to a shock tube flow. Our purpose is to confront our numerical model to an unsteady FSI problem. This study hopes to initiate a reference data bank in this domain. After a description of FSI numerical model, experimental device and diagnostic, a comparison is presented through the fluid flow structure and the panel deformations. A good agreement between numerical results and the experiments is obtained.
