Interference between Boundary Layer Flow and Wake Flow

Influence of Afterbody and Boundary Layer on Cavitating Flow

The characteristics of a cavitation water tunnel test setup and the experiments of cavitation around different models are given in this paper. Models of test are formed from combination of head and variable length afterbody. The experiments are performed initially with the smooth head and then with the roughened head. Cavitation initiates both in the wake and after the head. If the nose of mode...

Spectral Entropy in a Boundary-Layer Flow

This article presents a comparison of the entropy production in a laminar and transitional boundary layer flow with the spectral entropy produced in a region of instability induced by an imposed periodic disturbance. The objective of the study is exploratory in nature by computing a boundary-layer environment with well-established computer techniques and comparing the predictions of the maximum...

Influence on the Hypersonic Boundary-Layer Flow

For aerospace or hypersonic cruise vehicle the state of the boundary layer is of great importance because for turbulent boundary layers, the thermal loads and skin friction are higher than in laminar boundary layers. Therefore , knowledge of cooling features and laminar-turbulent transition is necessary for the design of the thermal protection system (TPS). Different strategies are used to redu...
