In this paper an investigation of an acoustic type waves influence on a wingtip vortex wake parameters was performed in a supersonic flow. The supersonic flow around a straight wing with sharp leading and trailing edges was considered at an attack angle of 10 degrees at Mach number of incoming flow M = 2.Perturbations were introduced into a steady state stream in the form of monochromatic plane waves with small amplitude. Numerical simulations were carried out at the Keldysh Institute of Applied Mathematics RAS using the parallel algorithm for turbulent flow simulation. For the numerical studies an approach based on the URANS method with using the SA turbulence model was applied. Numerical simulations were carried out on the supercomputing system K-60.Numerical data were obtained in the area exceeding 30 wing chords downstreamfrom a wing axis. A numerical data on the pulsation of gasdynamic parameters in the vortex wake influenced by disturbance are obtained, in particular, frequencies and disturbance ranges on the wingtip vortex axis are investigated depending on a distance from the wing - vortex generator.
