AN INVESTIGATION OF THE EFFECT OF THE WALL BOUNDARY LAYER ON THE WAKE OF AN OBSTACLE PROTRUDING FROM THE WALL,

Abstract

The experiment was carried out in order to investigate the flow behind various cylindrical obstacles placed in a turbulent boundary layer formed along the wall from which the obstacles protruded. Obstacles either extended completely through the boundary layer or protruded only partly into the boundary layer from the wall.
