Abstract
The mass (heat) transfer pattern near the base of a cylinder in crossflow, at Re{sub d} of 10,000-80,000, was described by Goldstein and Karni and Karni and Goldstein. Two small, intense vortices within the horseshoe vortex system produce high values and steep gradients of the transport coefficient over a narrow strip extending from the cylinder base to about 0.07d above it. The studies also indicate the effects of cylinder diameter and endwall boundary layer thickness on these phenomena. In the present study a portion of the endwall and the test cylinder placed normal to it are coated with naphthalene. Local mass transfer measurements are conducted on both surfaces and the results are compared to earlier data by Karni and Goldstein. Thus, the effect of changing the endwall boundary conditions from inactive to active on the mass (heat) transfer pattern is investigated.
