Supersonic axisymmetric jet flow over a missile afterbody containing exhaust jet is simulated using the second order accurate positive schemes method developed for solving the axisymmetric Euler equations based on the 2-D conservation laws.Comparisons between the numerical results and the experimental measurements show excellent agreements.The computed results are in good agreement with the numerical solutions obtained by using third order accurate RKDG finite element method.The results show larger gradient at discontinuous points compared with those obtained by second order accurate TVD schemes.It indicates that the presented method is efficient and reliable for solving the axisymmetric jet with external freestream flows,and shows that the method captures shocks well without numerical noise.
