Abstract

This paper reports measurements of the turbulent shear flow behind a wing body junction. Basic physical properties of the flow are illuminated by the experimental data which include the skin friction lines and coefficient, the static pressure coefficient and the mean velocity components. Oil flow visualization enabled the structure of the surface flow field to be investigated, together with static pressures on the flat plate downstream from the wing. Skin friction was measured with a Preston tube and velocity measurements taken. Physical aspects of the flow are discussed.
