Numerical Investigation of Boundary-Layer Transition for Cones at Mach 3.5 and 6.0

Transition in high-speed boundary layers is investigated using direct numerical simulation (DNS). A compressible Navier-Stokes code that is specifically tailored towards accurate and efficient simulations of boundary layer stability and boundary layer transition was developed and thoroughly validat...
