The effect of concave roughness on the hypersonic flat-plate boundary-layer transition
Preview AbstractIn order to reveal the effect of aircraft surface concave roughness on the transition, several hypersonic quiet wind tunnel tests were carried out on the flat-plate model with independent concave roughness on the surface. The experimental Mach number was 6.5 and the total temperature was 430 K. Using infrared thermal imaging technology, a general rule of the effect of concave roughness on the boundary layer transition was obtained. The flow visualization results and the PCB pressure measurement results showed that the concave roughness promotes the transition by increasing the growth of the first mode wave rather than the growth of the second mode wave.
