| Research Abstract |
In order to clarify the mechanism for supersonic boundary layer transition, we examine a supersonic boundary layer along a small tunnel nozzle wall with rectangular cross section using calibrated quantitative schlieren optical system, Pitot-tube, hot-wire and DNS with focusing efforts on finding non-linear disturbances governing the transition. The results clearly show that the transition examined in this study is the same as the subsonic case initially governed by low-speed streaks and streamwise vortices which can lead to the formation of turbulent spots. Also, we obtain useful numerical data and knowledge on the supersonic boundary layer transition, such as transition Reynolds number which is important not only for the transition prediction but for the laminar flow control.
