Experimental studies of zero pressure-gradient turbulent boundary layer flow
Year: 1999
Type: article
Abstract: This thesis deals with the problem of high Reynolds number zero pressuregradient turbulent boundary layers in an incompressible flow without any effects of heat-transfer. The zero-pressure gradient turbulent boundary layer is one of the canonical shear flows important in many applications and of large theoretical interest. The investigation was carried out through an experimental study in the MTL wind-tunnel at KTH, where the fluctuating velocity components and the fluctuating wall-shear stress in a turbulent boundary layer were measured using hot-wire and hot-film anemometry. Attempts were made to answer some basic and "classical" questions concerning turbulent boundary boundary layers. The classical \n
