Is the SST k-w model valid only for incompressible flows? Thank you.

There are compressible versions of k-w around. You'll have to search for them, as I don't have any references off the top of my head.

Turbulence Model Validation for Hypersonic Flows

You need not couple the model with the mean flow eqs which can speed up the solver by quite a bit. SST model tends to give slightly high heat transfer (10 to 15%) but is quite robust. Remember to validate your implementation against expt. and also Van Driest II.
