Abstract

The measurement results by Laser Doppler Velocimetry (LDV) are compared with the direct numerical simulation result by Eggels et al.[1] for a cylindrical pipe flow. In the case of a pipe flow, the bias error for mean velocity is very small, because the local turbulent intensity is very small all over the pipe cross section. However the difference of the combination of u′ and v′ have considerable effects on Reynolds shear stress. From our investigation, it is found that the selection of coincidence time that is a necessary parameter for combination of u′ and v′ is more important in obtaining the accurate Reynolds shear stress. The suitable coincidence time is selected for a jet flow and the effectiveness of coincident time method or equal time interval method with coincidence data is shown.
