In this work, the linear stability of compressible shear flows in channels and pipes are studied. A steady fully-developed laminar flow of an ideal gas, driven in a channel and a pipe by a constant body acceleration, is considered as the base state. The base flow profiles, being functions of Mach number, are obtained through numerical solution of the Navier-Stokes equations under steady parallel-flow conditions. Small amplitude normal mode perturbations are added to this flow and temporally growing solutions are studied. The evolution equations for the normal modes, that form a linear eigenvalue problem, are solved numerically by Chebyshev-Pseudospectral method. For both channel and pipe flows, the eigenspectra show presence of compressible higher modes that do not have a counterpart in the incompressible limit.
