AbstractWe show the response of the boundary-layer flow past a wing to free-stream disturbances with axial, vertical and spanwise vorticity and explain the associated receptivity mechanisms. A flat plate with elliptic leading edge serves as wing model, and the vortical free-stream disturbances are modeled by space and time periodic Fourier modes. The results are extracted from solutions to the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations computed with the Spectral Element Method.
