Abstract:Suction surface flow visualization on turbine blades at subsonic and transonic speeds showed robust streamwise streaks on a lengthy time-average basis. The normal flow past a circular cylinder is a more canonical case and testing was undertaken at high speeds on a 38 mm diameter cylinder and at low speeds on a 152 mm diameter cylinder. The lateral spacing between streaks on cylinders had been predicted by Kestin and Wood and the present tests gave excellent agreement with their theory. Although their work was … Show more
