Three-dimensional interference of oblique shock with boundary and high-entropy layers (M=5, induced boundary layer transition). Distribution of a nondimensional heat-transfer coefficient (Stanton number) over the plate surface near a 15 degree wedge depends on the plate leading edge bluntness radius r. Mach number M=5, Reynolds number Re∞L=27×106, total pressure Ро=70 bar, total temperature То=500К, free boundary layer transition.
