Abstract

A treatment of asymptotic calculation of upper branch nonstationary instability modes is undertaken in the boundary layer flow due to a rotating disk. A numerical spectral solution of the eigenvalue problem shows good agreement with the results of a rational asymptotic approach, based on the extension of the multideck theory of [1].
