Abstract
The paper presents the results of an experimental investigation aimed at an elucidation of the individual and collective influence of freestream turbulence intensity and pressure gradient on the length of the transitional boundary layer. A correlation for the transition length Reynolds number is developed and used, in an intermittency-based computational scheme, to predict the transitional boundary layer behaviour in a number of practical flows representative of the suction surface of gas turbine blading.
