Abstract : The effect of wall permeability on the response of pre-transitional supersonic boundary layers subject to low-amplitude, free-stream vortical disturbances is investigated via asymptotic methods and numerically. Equally-spaced cylindrical pores couple the pressure and wall-normal velocity fluctuations when the spanwise diffusion is negligible, thereby reducing the growth of low-frequency laminar streaks and Görtler vortices on concave porous walls. Highly-oblique Tollmien-Schlichting waves that develop further downstream are instead enhanced. This finding is confirmed by a triple-deck analysis.
