“I-Spots” and Emmons’ Spot Production Rate
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A new intermittency function flagging the turbulent, becalmed, and non-becalmed regions of transitional flow is introduced. In addition, a method is developed to detect embedded incipient turbulent spots within the ...
The Influence of Deterministic Surface Roughness and Freestream Turbulence on Transitional Boundary Layers: Heat Transfer Distributions and a New Transition Onset Correlation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Heat transfer measurements in transitional flat plate boundary layers subjected to surface roughness, strong pressure gradients, and freestream turbulence are presented. The surfaces considered consist of a smooth reference ...
The Influence of Element Thermal Conductivity, Shape, and Density on Heat Transfer in a Rough Wall Turbulent Boundary Layer With Strong Pressure Gradients
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Formation mechanisms for turbine roughness are manifold, including erosion, corrosion, deposition, and spallation or more recently additive manufacturing processes. Consequently, the resulting surfaces differ remarkably ...
High-Resolution Measurements of Heat Transfer, Near-Wall Intermittency, and Reynolds-Stresses Along a Flat Plate Boundary Layer Undergoing Bypass Transition
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A new experimental dataset focusing on the influence of high freestream turbulence and large pressure gradients on boundary layer transition is presented. The experiments are conducted in a new wind tunnel equipped with a ...
