Three-dimensional characteristics of unsteady flow in supercritical transonic diffuser are investigated. For various pressure ratios three-dimensional flow containing a normal shock/turbulent boundary layer interaction regions with shockwave and pseudo-shockwaves fluctuating in longitudinal and spanwise directions is observed. Experimental and numerical investigations show details of the flowfield in the vicinity of terminal shock, interaction regions and downstream turbulent unsteady flow. Spectral analysis of pressure fluctuations reveals existence of two characteristic frequencies attributed to the shockwave fluctuation in longitudinal direction for the lower frequency case and acoustic resonance in spanwise direction for the higher one. Vortices appear at each corner in transversal sections modifying the core flow. As a result, size and depth of longitudinal and vertical penetration of separation regions impelled by the terminal shock is either increased or decreased.
