Effect of Turbulizing Grid Near Wake on a Boundary Layer on a Wedge
Abstract
The problem of flow about bodies with high free stream turbulence is very important for engineering, because these flows are frequently met in different technical devices and turbo-machines. The recent researches showed that a stationary system of longitudinal structures arose on the winward side of the wing from increasing level of free stream turbulence to 1%. Characteristic transversal size of these structures exceeded the boundary layer thickness in many times. The number of the structures was found to be dependent on the angle of attack and the distance from the wind tunnel nozzle. Those experiments were carried in the open test section and the flow about the wing was complicated because of transversal spread of the flow. The present work is an experimental investigation of a similar phenomenon which takes place in a boundary layer on the winward surface of two-dimensional wedge in close test section.
