Abstract: Interaction of a supersonic streamwise vortex with the normal shock is considered. Two interaction modes (weak and strong interaction) are identified. It is demonstrated numerically that strong interaction can lead to vortex breakdown.

Keywords: supersonic flow, streamwise vortex, shock wave, vortex breakdown.
