Abstract: | The papers [1–5] are devoted to an investigation of aspects of the hydrodynamic interaction of cascades of profiles in a nonlinear formulation: it is shown experimentally in [1] and theoretically in [2] that the free vortex sheet ruptures upon meeting a profile; taking account of the evolution of vortex wakes, the flows around two cascades of solid profiles of infinitesimal [3] and finite [4] density are computed; results of an experimental investigation of the dynamic reactions of the flow on two mutually moving cascades of thin profiles are presented in [5]. The interference between two cascades of thin profiles in an inviscid, incompressible fluid flow is examined in this paper, where a modified method from [6] is used.Translated from Zhurnal Prikladnoi MekhaniM i Tekhnicheskoi Fiziki, No. 4, pp. 61–65, July–August, 1976.The author is grateful to D.
