I need to simulate mach reflection with mach stem generation using on Ansys Fluent. The wedge angle is of 22deg at Mach 5.

Welcome to PF. What experience do you have so far running simulations in Ansys Fluent?

Thank you! I have a basic understanding. Nothing in depth
 
You may want to simulate sub-sonic flow and reflection before trying to tackle supersonic flow. Have you run any sub-sonic simulations yet? What class is this for, and what year are you in university?

I fail to understand how you can simulate Mach reflection in a subsonic flow. But otherwise I agree, @Vin B needs to walk before attempting to run.
