Abstract
The receptivity of supersonic/hypersonic flows over blunt noses to freestream disturbances is performed by means of spectral collocation methods. The unsteady flow computations are made through solving the full Navier-Stokes equations in 2D. A shock-fitting technique is used to compute unsteady shock motion and its interaction with freestream disturbances accurately in the receptivity study. The computational results for receptivity of a semi-cylinder at Mach 8 is presented and validated by comparison with available theoretical and numerical results. The study shows significant effects of the viscosity on the receptivity process.
