Abstract

The evolution of a controlled broadband wave packet in flat-plate and swept-wing supersonic boundary layers was experimentally investigated at Mach number M = 2. The wave packet was introduced into the boundary layer by a localized pulse electrical discharge. The structure and evolution downstream of the wave packet were studied by hot-wire measurements. It was found that the wave packet has a symmetric shape in a flat-plate boundary layer, whereas there is asymmetry in case of a swept-wing one. The spectral analysis of the development of different modes of the wave packet was provided.
