A family of adverse pressure gradient turbulent boundary layers with upstream favourable pressure gradients. Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2023; 966 DOI: 10.1017/jfm.2023.429 ...
The book “Turbulent Flow and Boundary Layer Theory: Selected Topics and Solved Problems ” is focused on the outgrowth of our several years of teaching postgraduate courses in mechanical ...
Scientists at the University of Stuttgart's Institute of Aerodynamics and Gas Dynamics (IAG) have produced a novel dataset ...
The flow's variation -- or deviation from the mean velocity -- also displayed peculiar behavior across the boundary layer. Researchers sought to understand these two variables and derive formulas ...
We consider the laminar boundary-layer flow past a semi-infinite plate with a stream-wise ridge. We seek similarity solutions to the problem, when the freestream velocity takes the form x* n, where x* ...
A phenomenon of boundary-layer instability is discussed from the theoretical and experimental points of view. The china-clay evaporation technique shows streaks on the surface, denoting a vortex ...
In response, the flow slows down. However, the fluid in the boundary layer has already given up some momentum because of viscous losses and viscous friction, and it does not have enough momentum to ...
Over the past decade, estimates of the heat flow across the core–mantle boundary, or across a chemical boundary layer above it, have generally increased by a factor of 2 to 3.
The Boundary Layer Wind Tunnel in the Hele-Shaw Laboratory within the Faculty of Engineering is a designated National Wind Tunnel Facility, supporting a diverse range of research activities for both ...
"The internal boundary layer fundamentally changed the behavior of the flow from what would have been expected without it," she said. The study, "A family of adverse pressure gradient turbulent ...
