Boundary-Layer Bypass Transition Over Large-Scale Bodies

Abstract

The results suggest that the mean pressure gradient modifies the shape of the streamwise velocity profile compared to the flat-plate boundary layer. The research showed that the streamwise wavenumber plays a key role in the development of the streaks.
