Measurement Of Crossflow Vortex Structure

Abstract

Method developed for measuring wavelengths of crossflow vortices by using surface-mounted, microthin, multielement hot-film sensors. Provides direct and true value of wavelength of crossflow vortices at various spanwise locations without localized flow disturbances. Attainment of laminar airflow on aircraft wings has significant potential for reducing drag and increasing fuel efficiency.
