This study investigates the impacts of the cooling film’s Mach number (<i>Mj</i>) on the flow field structure. Two supersonic cooling film configurations, with the Mach numbers of 2.0 and 2.3, were designed and tested in a supersonic wind tunnel at the freestream Mach number M = 3.8. The flow field structure was obtained using nanotracer-based planar laser scattering (NPLS), and the wall pressure were derived using an experimentally validated numerical simulation method. The results demonstrate that in the mixing layer at <i>Mj</i> = 2.0 instability between the freestream and the supersonic cooling film develops earlier than that at <i>Mj</i> = 2.3, occurring under an identical ratio of the static pressure (RSP) conditions. On convex surfaces, as the radius of curvature decreases, the influence of the cooling film’s M on Δ<i>P</i>/<i>P</i><sub>in</sub> diminishes; conversely, on concave surfaces, as the radius of curvature decreases, the influence of the cooling film’s M on Δ<i>P</i>/<i>P</i><sub>in</sub> increases. Beyond <i>x =</i> 240 mm, the development over curved surfaces becomes pronounced, and the static pressure of the supersonic cooling film has minimum impact on the wall pressure.

When carbon dioxide dissolves in water or oil, the density of solution increases. This leads to the growth of instability. A hydrodynamic model that includes the continuity equation, the equation of motion (in the form of Darcy equation), and the convection-diffusion equation has been used. The equation of state that relates the density of the fluid phase to the concentration of carbon dioxide is nonlinear. The density of solution reaches a maximum at a certain concentration, which varies. A new computational code based on the finite-difference method has been developed to solve the problem. The effect of the concentration that gives the maximum density on the parameters of convective motion and mass transfer is investigated. In particular, it is found that if the maximum density occurs at a higher concentration, the amount of carbon dioxide that is transported downward by the convective flow increases.
