Abstract The response of laminar compressible boundary layers to fluctuations of the skin of the body or the outer flow are studied via asymptotic expansions in powers of the amplitude parameter and the frequency of the oscillation. Oscillating outer pressure disturbances for compressible flows are considered for the first time and their effect to the energy equation and heat transfer is estimated. The analysis holds for both two dimensional and axisymmetric configurations.
