1. Test model

(see page of notes)

Sketch of the experimental model

Characteristics of the undisturbed boundary layer at zero and adverse pressure gradients:velocity variation along the external boundary layer edge (a), variation of the boundarylayer momentum thickness (b), and the velocity profiles (c); hot-wire data (symbols),theoretical approximations (lines)

2. Basic flow

Varicose instability of the streaky structure, ZPG. Contours of mean disturbance velocity U – UB

and rms velocity u' (shading); negative contours are shown by blue lines; depicted red arc hasdiameter of 2 mm; contour step is 0.2U0.5 for U - UB, and 0.02Ue for u' (a). Instantaneous spatialdistribution of utot, iso - levels are +3.5% of Ue(grey) and –3.5% of Ue(blue) (b)
