The effect of wall temperature on the size of the separation bubble in the shock wave/turbulent boundary-layer interaction of a 24 deg compression ramp with Mach 2.9 is numerically investigated. The ratios of wall temperature to recovery temperature T w / T r are 0.6, 1.14, 1.4, and 2.0, respectively. To validate the simulation, the statistical results with T w / T r = 1.14 are tested and the results show a good agreement with theoretical and experimental results. It is shown that wall temperature has a remarkable effect on the size of the separation bubble and the size increases significantly with the increase of wall temperature. Through theoretical analysis, combined with numerical results, we get a semitheoretical formula L / δ ( T w / T r ) 0.85 , in which L and δ are the length of the separation bubble and the thickness of upstream boundary layer, respectively. The turbulent kinetic energy budgets are also analyzed based on the numerical data, and results show that turbulence kinetic energy is chiefly produced both in the buffer layer and near the shock wave, and turbulent dissipation is mainly in the center of the separation bubble as well as in the near-wall region. It is also shown that the intrinsic compressibility effect is not significant in all these cases.
