Remarks on stem configuration of X-array hot-wire probes
Abstract
Measurements of Reynolds stresses in a two-dimensional turbulent boundary layer by X-array probes with the prongs bent at right angles to the stem have a lower value than measurements obtained with an X-wire probe with prongs parallel to the stem. This discrepancy is produced by the aerodynamic interference of the stem.
