Journal of Applied Mechanics and Technical Physics Aims and scope

Abstract

Disturbances produced by external flow vorticity in a supersonic boundary layer are studied. It is shown that both vortical and nonvortical waves play an important role. The calculations are performed for subsonic and supersonic flows for a Mach number M=2.
