Abstract

Supersonic boundary-layer flow on a flat plate near a point of injection cut-off is considered. The goal is to develop a non-singular solution in the limit of large Reynolds number in the vicinity of the boundary-condition change. An application of Goldstein-type singular solutions shows that an interaction-type theory is required even for transverse velocity jumps on the boundary O(R− ½). The interaction analysis is developed in terms of the linearized triple-deck theory described by Smith & Stewartson (1973a). The analytically derived solution provides a continuous pressure and wall-shear distribution.
