The onset of instability in unsteady boundary-layer separation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
The process of unsteady two-dimensional boundary-layer separation at high Reynolds number is considered. Solutions of the unsteady non-interactive boundary-layer equations are known to develop a generic separation singularity in regions where the ...

Flow Control Methods and Their Applicability in Low-Reynolds-Number Centrifugal Compressors—A Review

open access: yesInternational Journal of Turbomachinery, Propulsion and Power, 2017
The decrease in the performance of centrifugal compressors operating at low Reynolds numbers (e.g., unmanned aerial vehicles at high altitudes or small turbomachines) can reach 10% due to increased friction.

Investigation into boundary layer transition using wall-resolved large-eddy simulations and modeled inflow turbulence [PDF]

open access: yesWind Energy Science, 2022
The objective of the present paper is to investigate the transition scenario of the flow around a typical section of a wind turbine blade exposed to different levels of inflow turbulence.

Study of separation phenomenon in transonic flows produced by interaction between shock wave and boundary layer

open access: yesVietnam Journal of Mechanics, 2011
For compressible flows, the transonic state depends on the geometry, Mach number and the incidence. This effect can produce shock wave. Some studies showed that the interaction between shock wave and boundary layer concerns separation phenomenon. Studies

Numerical study of the effect of sidewalls on shock train behaviour

open access: yesFlow, 2023
Strongly coupled sequences of shock waves, known as shock trains, are present in high-speed propulsion systems, where the presence of sidewalls substantially modifies the boundary layer thickness, skin friction and streamwise pressure distribution.

Effect of wall temperature on separation bubble size in laminar hypersonic shock/boundary layer interaction flows

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2019
At hypersonic speeds, the external wall temperatures of an aerospace vehicle vary significantly. As a result, there is a considerable heat transfer variation between the boundary layer and the wall of the hypersonic vehicle.

Implementation of a correction factor for the Pohlhausen laminar boundary layer applied on the CEVA curved wall jet model [PDF]

open access: yesINCAS Bulletin, 2013
Curved wall jets have many technical applications, ranging from aeronautical circulation controlled wings to micro-fluidics and cryogenics. This paper addresses the issue of correctly estimating the boundary layer separation for laminar curved wall jets.
