Compressible flows around blunt objects have diverse applications, but present analytic treatments are inaccurate and limited to narrow parameter regimes. We show that the flow in front of an axisymmetric body is accurately derived…

Stars and planets move supersonically in a gaseous medium during planetary engulfment, stellar interactions and within protoplanetary disks. For a nearly uniform medium, the relevant parameters are the Mach number and the size of the body,…

We perform particle-resolved simulations of subsonic and transonic flows past random arrays of spherical particles. The Reynolds number is held at $Re{\approx}300$ to ensure the flow remains in the continuum regime. At low volume fractions,…

A new solution method is presented for steady-state, momentum-conserving, non-axisymmetric bow shocks and colliding winds in the thin-shell limit. This is a generalization of previous formulations to include a density gradient in the…

The ability of streamwise-travelling waves of spanwise velocity to reduce the turbulent skin friction drag is assessed in the compressible regime. Direct numerical simulations are carried out to compare drag reduction in subsonic, transonic…

The propagation of extragalactic jets is studied by a series of twelve axisymmetric hydrodynamic simulations. Motivated by observational constraints, but unlike most previous simulations, the regime of jet to external medium density (eta)…

I present an extension of the thin layer approximation to non-axisymmetric bow shocks. By choosing a suitable set of curvilinear coordinates that matches the geometry of a generally distorted bow shock surface, I derive the fluid equations…

We present a study of hydrodynamic drag forces in smoothed particle simulations. In particular, the deceleration of a resolution-limited cold clump of gas moving through a hot medium is examined. It is found that the drag for subsonic…

Compressible flow varies from ideal-gas behavior at high pressures where molecular interactions become important. Density is described through a cubic equation of state while enthalpy and sound speed are functions of both temperature and…

The problem of a cold gas flowing past a stationary object is considered. It is shown that at large distances from the obstacle the shock front forms a parabolic solid of revolution. The interior of the shock front is obtained by solution…

Any gravitating mass traversing a relatively sparse gas experiences a retarding force created by its disturbance of the surrounding medium. In a previous contribution (Lee & Stahler 2011), we determined this dynamical friction force when…

Buoyancy-driven turbulent convection leads to a fully compressible flow with a strong top-down asymmetry of first- and second-order statistics when the adiabatic equilibrium profiles of temperature, density and pressure decay very strongly…

In this paper, we investigate steady inviscid compressible flows with radial symmetry in an annulus. The major concerns are transonic flows with or without shocks. One of the main motivations is to elucidate the role played by the angular…

By considering the advection and interaction of the vector momentum flux in highly supersonic spherically diverging winds, we derive a simple analytic description of the asymptotic opening angle of a wind-collision shock cone, in the…

Colliding supersonic bulk flows shape observable properties and internal physics of various astrophysical objects, like O-star winds, molecular clouds, galactic sheets, binaries, or gamma-ray bursts. Using numerical simulations, we show…

This paper considers the low Mach number limit and far field convergence rates of steady Euler flows with external forces in three-dimensional infinitely long nozzles with an obstacle inside. First, the well-posedness theory for both…

A circular Hele-Shaw cell bounded by a volumetrically confined elastic solid can act as a fluidic fuse: during radially outward fluid flow, the solid deforms in response to the viscous pressure field such that the gap expands near the inlet…

Internal flows inside gravitationally stable astrophysical objects, such as the Sun, stars and compact stars are compressed and extremely subsonic. Such low Mach number flows are usually encountered when studying for example dynamo action…

We investigate diffusion in supersonic, turbulent, compressible flows. Supersonic turbulence can be characterized as network of interacting shocks. We consider flows with different rms Mach numbers and where energy necessary to maintain…

The subsonic, compressible, potential flow around a hypersphere can be derived using the Janzen-Rayleigh expansion (JRE) of the flow potential in even powers of the incident Mach number $\mathcal{M}_\infty$. JREs were carried out with terms…
