Abstract
A passive control method for supersonic boundary-layer transition on a swept wing using longitudinal roughness is proposed. Tests were carried out to examine the effect of distributed roughness on the development of flow perturbations and on the laminar-turbulent transition. The method makes it possible to manipulate the transition in a wide range, bringing it either closer to the leading edge of the wing by 30 % or delaying it by 40 %.
