Large Eddy Simulation and High Resolution methods is playing a major role in understanding unsteady turbulent flow physics of Hypersonic flows. This paper presents application of a Finite Volume Godunov type LES method to study a sonic circular jet entering and mixing in to a supersonic stream of turbulent flow.
