Abstract

An empirical model of wall pressure spectra for adverse pressure gradient boundary layers is proposed. The effect of adverse pressure gradients on wall pressure spectra and the relationship between the boundary-layer parameters and the wall pressure are studied and demonstrated. A dataset for five experiments at four different test facilities, covering Reynolds number between and based on the boundary-layer momentum thickness, is selected to develop the new model. Goody’s model is served as the basis for the development. Predictions of the new model and comparisons with other published wall pressure spectral models for adverse pressure gradient boundary layers are made for the selected dataset. The new model shows good prediction accuracy for the selected dataset and a significant improvement compared to the other published models.
