Hot-Wire Attenuation and Its Correction in Turbulence Measurements
نویسنده
چکیده
A scheme is proposed for correcting the hot-wire attenuation in turbulence measurements in both frequency and time domains. The scheme is tested for simulated hot-wire signals under velocity impulse and sinusoidal perturbations of various frequencies. It is found that the frequency response of the hotwire system and the calculated central moments, after applying the correction, can be greatly improved.

Spatial resolution correction for hot-wire anemometry in wall turbulence
We investigate spatial resolution issues in hot-wire anemometry measurements of turbulence intensity and energy spectra. Single normal hot-wire measurements are simulated by means of filtering direct numerical simulation (DNS) of turbulent channel flow at Res 1⁄4 934. Through analysis of the two-dimensional energy spectra from the DNS, the attenuation of the small-scale energy levels is documen...
متن کاملUse of direct numerical simulation (DNS) data to investigate spatial resolution issues in measurements of wall-bounded turbulence
The effect of limited spatial resolution for hot-wire anemometry (HWA) is investigated by analysing the two-dimensional energy spectra from direct numerical simulation (DNS) of turbulent channel flow at Reτ ≈ 950. Various spanwise filter lengths are applied to the streamwise velocity components in order to mimic the limited spatial resolution of a single-normal hot-wire experiment. Clear attenu...

Measurements were carried out at Reynolds number based ...
متن کاملThe Influence of Spatial Resolution due to Hot-Wire Sensors on Measurements in Wall-Bounded Turbulence
Reassessment of compiled data reveal that recorded scatter in the hot-wire measured near-wall peak in viscous-scaled streamwise turbulence intensity is due in large part to the simultaneous competing effects of Reynolds number and viscous-scaled wire-length l ( lUτ ν, where l is the wirelength, Uτ is friction velocity and ν is kinematic viscosity). These competing factors can explain much of th...
