Book Description
Eight circular pitot probes ranging in size from 2 to 70 percent of the boundary-layer thickness were tested to provide experimental probe displacement results in a two-dimensional turbulent boundary layer at a nominal free-stream Mach number of 2 and unit Reynolds number of 8 million per meter. The displacement obtained in the study was larger than that reported by previous investigators in either an incompressible turbulent boundary layer or a supersonic laminar boundary layer. The large probes indicated distorted Mach number profiles, probably due to separation. When the probes were small enough to cause no appreciable distortion, the displacement was constant over most of the boundary layer. The displacement in the near-wall region decreased to negative displacement in some cases. This near-wall region was found to extend to about one probe diameter from the test surface.

Comparative Measurements of Total Temperature in a Supersonic Turbulent Boundary Layer Using a Conical Equilibrium and Combined Temperature-pressure Probe
Author: R. L. P. Voisinet
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Fluid mechanics
Languages : en
Pages : 88
Book Description
The predominant probes used for measuring total temperature in a compressible boundary-layer flow are described. The results of a direct comparison between two of these probes, the conical equilibrium temperature probe (Danberg probe) and the combined temperature-pressure probe of the DFVLR-AVA, are presented. The comparison was made by testing the probes simultaneously in the nozzle-wall turbulent boundary-layer flow of the NOL Boundary Layer Channel at zero and moderate heat-transfer conditions...

Analytical, Numerical, and Experimental Results on Turbulent Boundary Layers
Author: David L. Whitfield
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Laminar boundary layer
Languages : en
Pages : 108
Book Description
This report describes the results of analytical, numerical, and experimental investigations of incompressible and compressible boundary layers. The subjects considered are (1) Laminar and/or turbulent numerical boundary-layer calculations in which the Reynolds stress is related to the turbulent kinetic energy; (2) an analytical investigation of turbulence near a wall which is not founded on classical mixing-length theory; (3) analytical solutions for relating velocity and temperature throughout turbulent boundary layers for nonunity Prandtl numbers; (4) a description of the data reduction of pitot pressure measurements utilizing these analytical results, and (5) the application of the numerical and analytical results to the analysis of turbulent boundary-layer measurements made in the Propulsion Wind Tunnel Facility (PWT).
