The Behaviour of a Compressible Turbulent Boundary Layer Under Incipient Separation Conditions

  • Conference paper
Turbulent Shear Flows 4

Abstract

This paper presents an experimental study of a turbulent boundary-layer/shock-wave interaction. The interaction was generated by a two-dimensional compression corner, and the flow was on the point of separating. Measurements were made using both normal and inclined hot wires, and the data include measurements of the longitudinal mass-flow fluctuation intensity and the mass-weighted Reynolds shear stress.
