Abstract A direct numerical simulation database (Zuo et al., J. Fluid Mech. vol. 877, 2019, 167–195) is analyzed to investigate the size of the separation bubble and the relation with the pressure rise in the conical shock wave/turbulent boundary layer interaction. The characteristics of the separation bubbles in the supersonic turbulent boundary layer induced by conical shock waves are discussed. The inviscid reflected conical shock theory is analyzed, to conclude that regular reflection transition to Mach reflection will occur somewhere along the spanwise direction in the interaction zone. Then, the typical shape of a turbulent separation bubble in the conical shock wave/turbulent boundary layer interaction is described. The scaling between the size of the turbulent separation bubble and moderate conical shock intensities is established, giving a potential alternative method to rapidly predict the size of turbulent separation bubbles, especially in the supersonic viscous corrections under condition of boundary layer separation.

    Highlights The typical shape of the turbulent separation bubble in CSBLI is described. The scaling between the size of separation bubble and pressure jump is established. The regular reflection transition to Mach reflection will occur somewhere in conical shock interaction.
