Fluctuating wall pressures have been measured in Mach 5 interactions generated by sharp, upswept fins at angles of attack of 16 to 28 deg. The results show that rms pressure distributions, like the mean, can be collapsed in conical coordinates. The wall pressure signal near separation is intermittent and is qualitatively similar to that measured in unswept interactions and other swept flows. However, the dominant separation shock frequencies in the swept flows are up to an order of magnitude higher than those in unswept interactions under identical incoming flow conditions. In light of the present observations, it appears that an earlier remark, by Gilson and Dolling, that separation is characterized by a shuddering compression system, in contrast to a translating separation shock is erroneous due to a combination of weak shock strength and inadequate spatial resolution. Furthermore, although the maximum rms pressure near separation increases with increasing interaction strength, as in swept compression ramp flows, comparison of data from the two flow types indicates that the appropriate correlating parameter is the interaction sweepback angle.
