Abstract

Measurements and predictions are presented which investigate the effects of thermal boundary condition on heat transfer in the turbulent rough-wall boundary layer. Stanton number measurements are reported for the turbulent flow of air over rough plates with a variety of thermal boundary conditions on two separate rough surfaces. The cases considered are constant wall temperature, constant wall heat flux, step wall temperature, and piecewise linear wall temperature distributions. These measurements and data from other sources are compared with predictions using finite difference solutions of the discrete element roughness model and with superposition solutions. The predictions and the measurements are in good to excellent agreement.
