We have found that low levels of helium injection near the leading edge stabilizes the turbulent boundary layer, apparently causing a reverse transition to laminar flow to take place. These results ...
Shock wave and turbulent boundary layer interactions are phenomena encountered in high-speed flows, where abrupt pressure changes associated with shock waves impinge upon the viscous layer of fluid ...
Turbulence makes many people uneasy or downright queasy. And it's given researchers a headache, too. Mathematicians have been trying for a century or more to understand the turbulence that arises when ...
