Interaction of coherent flow structures in adverse pressure gradient turbulent boundary layers

With the aim to characterize the near-wall flow structures and their interaction with large-scale motions in the log-law region, time-resolved planar and volumetric flow field measurements were performed in the near-wall and log-law region of an adverse pressure gradient turbulent boundary layer fol...

Description
Summary:With the aim to characterize the near-wall flow structures and their interaction with large-scale motions in the log-law region, time-resolved planar and volumetric flow field measurements were performed in the near-wall and log-law region of an adverse pressure gradient turbulent boundary layer following a zero pressure gradient turbulent boundary layer at a friction Reynolds number $Re_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D70F}}=5000$ . Due to the high spatial and temporal resolution of the measurements, it was possible to resolve and identify uniform-momentum zones in the region  $z/\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FF}
