Transition Prediction of Boundary Layers in the Presence of Backward-Facing Steps
A set of available engineering models for the prediction of transition to turbulence is evaluated via comparisons with a high-quality experiment involving a backward-facing step (BFS) on a flat plate at subsonic freestream conditions. The streamwise shift in the transition location is monitored as t...

description | A set of available engineering models for the prediction of transition to turbulence is evaluated via comparisons with a high-quality experiment involving a backward-facing step (BFS) on a flat plate at subsonic freestream conditions. The streamwise shift in the transition location is monitored as the step height and flow speed are varied across step-height-to-local-displacement-thickness ratios of 0 |
