It is known that the longitudinal vortex pairs which are known as Gortler vortices are often formed in boundary layers over concave curved surfaces due to the centrifugal instability. The longitudinal vortices can have significant effects on the wall heating rate in hypersonic flow. The purpose of this work is to investigate fundamental characteristics of the Gortler vortices generated on a hypersonic compression ramp surface. In this study, a three-dimensional numerical simulation was conducted at Mach number 7 using the fifthorder WCNS with AUSM + -up scheme for inviscid terms, the fourth-order central differencing for viscous terms, and the third-order TVD Runge-Kutta scheme for the time integration. As a result, the Gortler vortices were generated behind the reattachment point of the boundary layer on the compression ramp and their spanwise wavelength was about three times greater than the boundary layer thickness at the separation point.
