文摘When the high-pressure gas is exhausted to the vacuum chamber from the nozzle,the underexpanded supersonic jet contained with the Mach disk is generally formed.The eventual purpose of this study is to clarify the unsteady phenomenon of the underexpanded free jet when the back pressure continuously changes with time.The characteristic of the Mach disk has been clarified in consideration of the diameter and position of it by the numerical analysis in this paper.The sonic jet of the exit Mach number Me=1 is assumed and the axisymmetric conservational equation is solved by the TVD method in the numerical calculation.The diameter and position of the Mach disk differs with the results of a steady jet and the influence on the continuously changing of the back pressure is evidenced from the comparison with the case of steady supersonic jet.
