High-resolution skin-friction fields are extracted from pressure-sensitive paint (PSP) data obtained in shock-wave/boundary-layer interaction (SWBLI). The method of extracting skin friction from surface pressure is described, including the fundamental relation between skin friction and surface pressure, the variational method, error analysis, and an approximate iterative method. The proposed method is based on a coupling relation between skin friction and surface pressure, where the boundary enstrophy flux is suitably modeled or approximated. This method is applied to unsteady PSP data obtained in incident SWBLIs at Mach 2.5 for different Reynolds numbers, revealing the skin-friction structures of the flows: particularly, the separation bubble induced by the incident shock wave. The extracted results are in good agreement with the data obtained by the surface-stress-sensitive film.
