This paper studies the local receptivity of the Mack-mode instability to localized unsteady blowing and suction(UBS)in a chem-ical non-equilibrium(CNE)hypersonic boundary layer.The five-species CNE model is employed,and the receptivity efficiency is formulated by use of the residual theorem.Compared with the results for the calorically perfect gas(CPG)model,we find that the real-gas effect enhances the receptivity efficiency remarkably in the majority of the second-mode frequency band,and the enhancement is mainly attributed to the modification of the base flow due to the CNE effect,which is akin to the cold-wall effect in hypersonic boundary layers.Combined with the destabilizing role of the CNE effect on the Mack second mode,it is concluded that the CNE effect would lead to a greater linearly accumulated perturbation amplitude,implying premature of transition to turbulence in a high-enthalpy hypersonic boundary layer subject to localized perturbations.
