Abstract

The pulse ionization of the time-dependent quasi-two-dimensional flow developed during diffraction of a shock wave on a wedge is investigated experimentally. The redistribution of the pulse volume discharge plasma subjected to preionization by ultraviolet radiation from plasma sheets is investigated when the discharge is initiated in different stages of the time-dependent gas dynamic flow. Images of the plasma flow are compared with the corresponding fields of the gas dynamic flow parameters. It is shown that the pulse discharge plasma flows can be controlled due to the phenomenon of self-localization in a given flow zone of known shape. The local energy supply to the gasdynamic flow is simulated numerically using the experimental data.
