Reflection of a Weak Shock Wave From a Boundary Layer Along a Flat Plate 1: Interaction of Weak Shock Waves With Laminar and Turbulent Boundary Layers Analyzed by Momentum-Integral Method

Note presenting an investigation of the phenomena encountered when a plane oblique shock wave is incident upon the boundary layer of a flat plate. The flow field was divided into a viscous layer near the wall and a supersonic potential outer flow. With the outer flow determined, boundary-layer growth and pressure distribution were computed and results for the laminar cases were obtained and provided.
