Linear Analysis of Boundary-Layer Instabilities on a Finned-Cone at Mach 6

Daniel B. Araya, Neal P. Bitter, Bradley M. Wheaton +8

Boundary-layer instabilities for a finned cone at Mach=6, $Re=8.4\times 10^6$ [m${}^{-1}$], and zero incidence angle are examined using linear stability methods of varying fidelity…
