Abstract
Helmholtz decomposition is applied to investigate the compressibility effect in hypersonic turbulent boundary layers. The dilatational component of flow plays an important role in the near-wall region, while the solenoidal component is dominant far from the wall. The cold wall condition significantly enhances the compressibility, and especially enhances compression motions near the wall.
