Nonparallel stability of the compressible boundary layers for three-dimensional configurations having large curvature variation on the surface is investigated by using the parabolic stability equations, which are derived from the Navier-Stokes equations in the curvilinear coordinate system. The difference schemes with fourth-order accuracy can be used in the entire computational regions. The global method is combined with the local method using a new iterative formula, thus more precise eigenvalues are obtained, and fast convergences are achieved. Computed curves of the amplification factor and shape functions of disturbances show clearly variable process of the flow stability, and agree well with other available results.
