Supersonic Flow Past an Annular Cavity on an Axisymmetric Pointed Body

The main results of investigations carried out at the Institute of Mechanics of the Moscow State University over the past 10 years in the field of studying supersonic flow past annular cavities on conically pointed cylindrical bodies, including at angles of attack, are reviewed. The possibilities of some active and passive methods for controlling the regimes of flow past the cavity are also presented.
