Abstract

This study provides the theoretical foundation for a well-established, but.heretofore empirical, criterion for incipient separation in moderately hypersonic shock/boundary layer interactions. It is based on an examination of the leading high Reynolds number approximation to triple deck theory, combined with its reformulation in terms of the reference temperature concept. The analysis further provides extensions giving the effects of both low supersonic Mach numbers and non-adiabatic wall temperatures on incipient separation.
