From the observation of the how field over smooth wall, rough wall and sand wave wall, it was found that the direct effect of wall on the flow structure can reach y(+1) approximate to 100, and both lateral and vertical vortices exist in the outer region, but the coherent structures in the outer region are mainly the formation, development and decay of the large-scale lateral vortices. By experimental and dynamical analysis, some influence factors and their relations associated with the dynamical process of lateral vortices were deduced.展开更多

文摘In the present paper the coherent structures in the outer region of turbulent boundary layer were investigated experimentally and analytically. From the observation of the how field over smooth wall, rough wall and sand wave wall, it was found that the direct effect of wall on the flow structure can reach y(+1) approximate to 100, and both lateral and vertical vortices exist in the outer region, but the coherent structures in the outer region are mainly the formation, development and decay of the large-scale lateral vortices. By experimental and dynamical analysis, some influence factors and their relations associated with the dynamical process of lateral vortices were deduced.
