A numerical investigation was carried out to explore the effects of a magnetically-accelerated surface discharge on a separated, turbulent boundary layer in supersonic flow. The geometry and test conditions were chosen for comparison to experiments carried out at Princeton University. For those studies, a reflected shock interaction was created using a 14 degrees shock generator acting on an incoming turbulent boundary layer with a Reynolds number based on momentum thickness of 1 x 10(4) and a freestream Mach number of 2.6. Three-dimensional, Reynolds-averaged, Navier-Stokes (RANS) calculations were carried out to simulate the experiments, using the US3D code developed at the University of Minnesota. The baseline code was modified to include a semi-empirical model of the surface discharge actuator, implemented through source terms in the momentum equation, vibrational energy equation, and total energy equation. The computational results for the baseline flow and several control cases were compared to experimental measurements of mean surface pressure. The level of discrepancy was typical of well-resolved RANS computations of three-dimensional, separated flows: qualitative agreement was obtained, and the general experimental trends were captured by the numerical model. Substantial three-dimensionality was observed even in the baseline flow, and significant changes in the flow topology were observed with the application of the actuator. Because of the highly three-dimensional nature of this shock interaction, the initial interpretation of the experiments may need to be revisited. [http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.4772197]
