A Study of Turbulent Boundary Layer Structure.

Abstract

The purpose of this investigation was to complete analysis of space-time correlation measurements of two velocity compents in the wall region of a turbulent pipe flow. The third component was obtained form continuity, and eigenfunctions of the cross-spectral density tensor extracted. Keywords: Large eddies; Turbulen boundary layer.
