| Abstract: | The linear problem is considered of a localized vibrator mounted on a flat plate in a subsonic boundary layer. The plate and the vibrator are assumed to be heat-insulated, and the dimensions of the vibrator and the frequency of the oscillations are such that the flow may be described by means of the equations of a boundary layer with self-induced pressure. The amplitude of the oscillations of the vibrator and the perturbations of the flow parameters corresponding to it are assumed to be small, and this makes it possible to linearize these equations. Integral transformations are used to construct a solution for values of the time greatly exceeding the period of the oscillations of the vibrator. The profiles of the perturbations of the longitudinal velocity are calculated in dependence on the transverse coordinate for various values of the longitudinal coordinate. A comparison is made with the profiles of the perturbations of the longitudinal velocity which have been obtained experimentally.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, No. 3, pp. 61–67, May–June, 1987. |
