Inviscid instability of compressible exponential boundary layer flows

Based on the linearized Euler equations and the normal-mode approach, the Pridmore-Brown equation for acoustics and the stability of parallel shear flows is solved for a boundary layer flow with an exponential velocity profile. The general solution is derived in terms of the confluent Heun function,...
