    In engineering applications, the presence of free-stream disturbances promotes early breakdown to turbulence, and transition is said to “bypass” the classical Tollmien-Schlichting route. Numerical simulations of bypass transition reveal that high-frequency disturbances from the free stream are expelled by the boundary-layer shear –. To acquire insight into the role of free-stream turbulence on laminar-turbulent transition, the interaction between a boundary layer and an array of single-wavenumber vortices convected at the mean free-stream velocity is studied analytically and numerically. For small amplitudes, the effect of a spectrum can be obtained by superposition. The flow field is taken to be the sum of .

Boundary layer flow with large initial disturbances, or equivalently high FST, requires less amplification to reach an amplitude that initiates transition, thus also has a lower. If the assumption that FST is the main operating condition effect, an.

    Measurements from heated boundary layers along a concave-curved test wall subject to high (initially 8 percent) free-stream turbulence intensity and strong (K = (ν/U ∞ 2) dU ∞ /dx) as high as 9 × 10 −6) acceleration are presented and ions for the experiments were chosen to roughly simulate those present on the downstream half of the pressure side of a gas . findings on influence of intense free stream (FST) turbulence on boundary layer transition. Experimental investigation was conducted in TsAGI T wind tunnel (WT). The distributions of intermittency over straight and swept wings models were used to specify the start and the end of transition zone.

The study of transition under hypersonic conditions has increasingly become an attractive research topic. Hypersonic boundary layer transitions at low disturbance levels are caused by various flow instabilities, among which the first mode and the second mode are the most basic and important.

This is the companion volume on the effects of artificial disturbance on the transition process of a boundary layer over a flat plate. The artificial disturbance with the frequency in the range of second-mode instability is introduced into the boundary layer by glowing discharge on the surface of the plate.

Considerable experimental evidence exists which shows that free stream disturbances (the ratio of root-mean-square pressure fluctuations to mean values) in conventional wind tunnels increase with increasing Mach number at low supersonic to moderate hypersonic speeds.

In addition to local conditions, the free stream disturbance level influences transition behavior on simple Cited by: The initial stage of the natural transition process is known as the Receptivity phase and consists of the transformation of environmental disturbances – both acoustic (sound) and vortical (turbulence) – into small perturbations within the boundary layer.

The mechanisms by which these disturbances arise are varied and include freestream. When both free-stream fluctuations and wall roughness act on the boundary layer at the same time, transition is dominated by steady crossflow waves unless the incoming turbulence intensity is larger than about % for roughness amplitudes of about one tenth of the boundary-layer displacement thickness.

Abstract. We investigate the influence of free-stream turbulent vortical disturbances on a compressible laminar boundary layer by solving the unsteady linear boundary region equations for the velocity and temperature fluctuations. These equations describe the evolution of the perturbations when the boundary layer thickness becomes of the order of the transverse free-stream.

Journal of Fluid Mechanics, Vol.Issue. This book is organized into two main topics—boundary layer control for low drag, and shock-induced separation and its prevention by design and boundary layer control.

It specifically discusses the nature of transition, effect of two-dimensional and isolated roughness on laminar flow, and progress in the design of low drag aerofoils. The present measurement campaign on the free-stream turbulence induced boundary layer transition scenario has provided a unique set of experimental data.

This new set of data has the potential to enhance the understanding of the effect of the free-stream turbulence characteristic length scales on the transition location and not only the.

The nonlocalized receptivity of Falkner-Skan boundary layers is analyzed. An acoustic disturbance in the free stream interacts with a surface-generated disturbance to excite the natural boundary-layer instabilities. Results for the streamwise evolution of disturbances are presented along with receptivity amplitudes.

The influence of increasing of free-stream turbulence level on transition location was determined. The comparison is made of the results obtained with the boundary layer transition data for the straight wing with the same airfoil at similar external condition.

It was shown that at high and stationary disturbances (longitudinally-oriented. The laminar-turbulent transition has significant influence on determining the the free stream.
