References. Despite many decades of jet-in-crossflow experimentation, a distinct lack of data remained for a supersonic jet exhausting into a subsonic compressible crossflow. The investigation documented in this report sought to address this deficiency by examining the flowfield structure of a Mach 3.73 jet injected transversely from a flat plane into a subsonic compressible freestream. The experimental results described herein include the men surface pressure field as mapping using static pressure taps on the flat plate and an identification of flow features by employing an oil-based surface flow tracer. The possibility of flow separation within the nozzle itself also is addressed using pressure taps along the nozzle interior wall, as is the asymmetry of the separation line due to the variation of the local backpressure around the perimeter of the nozzle orifice resulting from the jet-in-crossflow interaction. Pressure data both on the flat plate and within the nozzle are presented at numerous angles with respect to the crossflow freestream direction to provide a breadth of measurements throughout the interaction region. Since the data are intended for use in validating computational models, attention is paid to providing details regarding the experimental geometry, boundary conditions, flowfield nonuniformities, and uncertainty analyses. Eight different sets of data were provided, covering a range of values of the jet-to-freestream dynamic pressure ration from 2.8 to 16.9 and a freestream Mach number ranger of 0.5 to 0.8. Condition: Very good.
