Interaction Of Oblique Shock Wave With A Laminar Boundary Layer Analyzed By Differential Equation Method PDF Download

By analogy with the boundary-layer concept, the flow produced by the interation between a shock wave and a laminar boundary layer is subdivided into a viscous layer and a potential field. The assumptions that the compressibility effect of the inner layer is negligible and that the original flow in the outer layer is uniform lead to simple analytic solutions for the perturbed flow. The joining conditions at the interface between the layers determine an eigenvalue which gives the rate of decay and the character of the disturbances both upstream and downstream of the point of incidence. The final conclusions are in agreement with the experiments.
