Abstract

Direct numerical simulations of receptivity in a boundary layer over a flat plate and a sharp wedge were carried out with two-dimensional perturbations introduced into the flow by periodic-in-time blowing-suction through a slot. The free stream Mach numbers are equal to 5.92 and 8 in the cases of adiabatic flat plate and sharp wedge, respectively. The perturbation flow field was decomposed into normal modes with the help of the multimode decomposition technique based on the spatial biorthogonal eigenfunction system. The decomposition allows filtering out the stable and unstable modes hidden behind perturbations having another physical nature.
