Inviscid flow over a forward/backward facing step
 

Hi all,

I am looking for test cases for compressible inviscid sonic/supersonic/transonic flow over a backward or forward facing step. Any references (papers/web) welcome.

Thanks

None of these are inviscid, but they might serve as a good starting point for finding the data you need. Check the references / lit review in these papers:

Thanks, I found the test cases on some website.
