Streamwise vortex structure induced by secondary instability of compressible shear flow was numerically investigated. Parallel shear flow with convective Mach number 0.4 was used in the present study. From linear stability analysis, existence of streamwise vortex structure components was confirmed, and scale ratio λz/λx which gives maximum amplification rate was specified. In addition, spatially evolving shear flow was investigated by three-dimensional calculation. Streamwise vortex structure similar to that gotten from linear stability analysis was observed. In the case where white-noise-like disturbance was introduced, growth rate of shear layer was estimated and effect of streamwise vortex structure on growth of shear layer was investigated. Due to streamwise vortex structure induced by secondary instability, growth rate in three-dimensional calculation was larger than the case of two-dimensional case.
