Effect of free-stream turbulence on boundary layer transition.
This paper is concerned with the transition to turbulence in flat plate boundary layers due to moderately high levels of free-stream turbulence. The turbulence is assumed to be generated by an (idealized) grid and matched asymptotic expansions are used to analyse the resulting flow over a finite thickness flat plate located in the downstream region. The characteristic Reynolds number Rλ based o...
متن کاملEffect of Camber and Thickness on the Aerodynamic Properties of an Airfoil in Ground Proximity (RESEARCH NOTE)
A linear vortex panel method is extended to include the effect Abstract of ground proximity on the aerodynamic properties of two dimensional airfoils. The image method is used to model the ground effect . According to the results, lift coefficient of an airfoil may increase or decrease in ground effect based on a combinative effect of its camber, thickness, angle of attack and ground clearance....
متن کاملNonlinear instabilities of a non-self-similar boundary layer on an airfoil: Experiments, DNS, and theory
Transition prediction of a laminar boundary layer developing on a two-dimensional airfoil section at pure subsonic speeds is still a challenge, because the commonly used semi-empirical prediction tools are mainly based on results derived from the linear stability theory (LST). This approach completely neglects non-linear interactions at later stages of the transition development and therefore p...
متن کاملInfluence of Local Ultrasonic Forcing on a Turbulent Boundary Layer
An experimental study was carried out to investigate the effect of local ultrasonic forcing on a turbulent boundary layer. The ultrasonic forcing system was constructed by adhering six ultrasonic transducers to a flat plate over which water was flowed. In this system, the ultrasonic waves projected into the water by the transducers caused cavitation, giving rise to an enormous number of tiny ai...
متن کاملNavier–Stokes Simulation of Harmonic Point Disturbances in an Airfoil Boundary Layer
Laminar-turbulenttransitionmechanismsinducedby a harmonicpoint source disturbance in a at-plateboundary layerwith adverse pressure gradient are investigated by fourth-order accurate spatial direct numerical simulation based on the complete three-dimensionalNavier–Stokes equations for incompressible ow. The disturbance is introduced into the two-dimensionalbase ow by time-periodic simultan...
