Abstract

This short article describes flow parameters, numerical method, and animations of the fluid dynamics video ``LES of an Inclined Jet into a Supersonic Turbulent Crossflow". We performed large-eddy simulation with the sub-grid scale (LES-SGS) stretched-vortex model of momentum and scalar transport to study the gas-dynamics interactions of a helium inclined round jet into a supersonic ($M=3.6$) turbulent ($Re_\theta=13\times10^3$) air flow over a flat surface. The video shows the temporal development of Mach-number and magnitude of density-gradient in the mid-span plane, and isosurface of helium mass-fraction and $\lambda_2$ (vortical structures). The identified vortical structures are sheets, tilted tubes, and discontinuous rings. The vortical structures are shown to be well correlated in space and time with helium mass-fraction isosurface ($Y_{He}=0.25$).
