Abstract: This paper represents the results from an experimental investigation of the flow physics behind the difference in the transition zone length indicated by the momentum boundary layer and thermal ...

Abstract: This paper represents the results of an experimental program with the aim of controlling the flow in a highly unstable 90deg curved diffuser. The diffuser, which is an integral part of an ...

Abstract: Turbulent wedges induced by a three-dimensional surface roughness placed in a laminar boundary layer over a flat plate were visualized for the first time using both shear-sensitive and ...
