Conference on Complex Turbulent Flows: Comparison of Computation and Experiment, Stanford University, Stanford, CA, September 3-6, 1980, Proceedings. Volume 1 - Objectives, evaluation of data, specifications of test cases, discussion and position papers

Topics on the computation and experimental testing of complex turbulent flows are addressed, including test cases. The subjects discussed include: attached boundary layers; effect of free-stream turbulence on boundary layers; boundary layer flows; the relationships of boundary layers to free-stream turbulence, streamwise curvature, suction and blowing; the planar mixing layer; two-dimensional channel flow with periodic perturbations; corner flow data evaluation; entry zone of a round tube; bluff-body, near-wake flows; two-dimensional stalled airfoil; separated and unseparated diffuser flows; backward-facing step flow; and asymmetric flow in a square duct. Also considered are: variable opposite wall angle, turned flow passage, and variable area ratio for a backward-facing step; flows with buoyancy forces, swirl; transonic airfoils; shock-boundary layer interactions; wakes of round bodies, two-dimensional bodies, and ships; turbulent wall jet; relaminarizing flows.
