Hi all,

I am trying to simulate (Inviscid FLow) a Ramjet Intake. Please find the geometry and BC in the attached figure.

I used the following BC
  1. Inlet - Pressure Inlet
  2. Freestream - Pressure Farfield
  3. symmetry - axis
  4. wall - slip
  5. outlet - Pressure Outlet

I specified pressure at the outlet to get a normal shock in the constant area portion of the intake.

First i initialized with fully supersonic flow and specified static pressure at the outlet, but the outlet BC was not sensed, which the simulation resulted in fully supersonic flow.

So i initialized with fully subsonic flow and specified static pressure at the outlet, but the flow reversal at the outlet and the solution is not converging.

So what would be a good strategy to simulate this kind of problem in fluent.
