Abstract
The effect of cooling strips on single-frequency (controlled, forced) transition in subsonic flow over a flat plate is studied. The maximum value of the integrated growth rate (the N factor) of the instability wave is used as a measure of transition. The effects of the cooling st rip location, the length of the cooling strip, the flow free-stream Ma ch number, and an isolated roughness element on transition location ar e evaluated.
