Abstract

The effects of free-steam turbulence on a turbulent boundary layer are experimentally investigated by using a wind tunnel. For the case with free stream turbulence, turbulence-generating grid is placed upstream of the leading end of a flat plate, on which turbulent boundary layer is developed. The Reynolds number based on the momentum thickness is Re_θ=2990 for the case with and without grid turbulence. Instantaneous streamwise velocity is measured using a hot-wire anemometry with an inhouse I-type probe. The effects of free-stream turbulence on statistical properties of the turbulent boundary layer are discussed.
