Abstract

A nonlinear time-dependent model of the development of longwave perturbations in a hypersonic boundary layer flow in the neighborhood of a cooled surface is constructed. The pressure in the flow is assumed to be induced the combined variation of the thicknesses of the near-wall and main parts of the boundary layer. Numerical and analytic solutions are obtained in the linear approximation. It is shown that if the main part of the boundary layer is subsonic as a whole, its action reduces the perturbation damping upstream and the perturbation growth downstream, while a supersonic, as a whole, main part of the boundary layer creates the opposite effects. An analysis of the solutions obtained makes it possible to conclude that the asymptotic model proposed can describe the three-dimensional instability of the Tollmien-Schlichting waves.
