Experimental and numerical study of sink flow turbulent boundary layers
Sink flow turbulent boundary layers (TBLs) develop in the incompressible flow be- tween two convergent, plane smooth walls and represent a family of favorable pres- sure gradient TBLs. These are the only smooth wall TBLs ... -
An Experimental Investigation of Transitional and Turbulent Channel Flow
This thesis is a comprehensive experimental investigation of transitional and turbulent channel flow in the Reynolds number range of Reτ = 55 − 1559. Towards this objective, a new channel flow facility was designed and ... -
Inverse transition from turbulent to laminar flow in a two-dimensional channel
An experimental investigation on inverse transition from turbulent to laminar flow in a two-dimensional channel was carried out. The experiments were conducted in the inverse transition region at Reynolds numbers of 525, ... -
Low Reynolds Number Airfoil Aerodynamics
(Indian Institute of Science, 2006-07-21)In this thesis we describe the development of Reynolds- averaged Navier Stokes code for the flow past two- dimensional configuration. Particularly, emphasis has been laid on the study of low Reynolds number airfoil ... -
Studies on transition from laminar to turbulent flow in a pipe
This thesis describes some investigations on the transition from laminar to turbulent flow in a straight pipe of circu lar cross-section. It is found that Emmons* Theory of transition by the formation and growth of ...
