A method of flow field determination for moderately skewed, three-dimensional flows
Abstract
A hot-wire response model is described which can be used to determine the local mean velocity vector and Reynolds stress components in moderately skewed, three-dimensional flows. Initial discussion centers on the development of the model, with particular emphasis on its unique features. Reynolds stress distributions measured in fully-developed turbulent pipe flow under simulated skewed flow conditions are presented. Comparisons are made which demonstrate the validity of the proposed technique and its relative advantages over conventional methods of measurement.
