Experimental Study of Stability and Transition of Hypersonic Boundary Layer Around Blunted Cone
Abstract
The objective of this project is to basic research of stability and transition of hypersonic boundary layer around blunted cone. Next results is obtained: -experimental data on the position of the laminar-turbulent transition in the boundary layer of a cone with different nose bluntness for Mach 6; -experimental data on the characteristics of natural disturbances in the hypersonic boundary layer of a blunted cone for Mach 6; -experimental data on the evolution of artificial disturbances, excited in the hypersonic boundary layer on a blunted cone for Mach 6. Acquired experimental data could be used for validation of numerical techniques. Using of obtained data will help to more accurate prediction of laminar-turbulent transition location and thereby heat fluxes on hypersonic vehicles.
