Abstract
In this Letter, hypersonic boundary-layer transition was investigated on a large-scale cone with a height of 3 m and a half-cone angle of 7° at a zero angle of attack in the JF-12 hypersonic flight duplicate shock tunnel. For the same freestream unit Reynolds number, with the increase in the bluntness Reynolds number, the transition Reynolds number has a trend of first increasing and then decreasing, showing a “transition reversal” phenomenon. As the bluntness increased, the high/low-frequency instability waves in the boundary-layer were modulated, which caused the boundary-layer transition to be delayed and then advanced.
