Simultaneous planar laser-induced fluorescence (PLIF) and particle image velocimetry (PIV) yield measurements of two-dimensional jet fluid concentration and velocity fields, both the mean and fluctuating terms, in turbulent crossflowing jets. The jet-to-crossflow velocity ratio is r = 5.7 and the jet exit Reynolds number is approximately 5000. The measurements concern the developing region of t...

An experimental investigation of swept-wing crossflow transition is carried out, focussing on the effects of chord Reynolds number and direct roughness element height (spaced at the critical crossflow wavelength) in a moderate-level disturbance facility. Flow quality measurements performed in the wind tunnel indicate turbulence intensities of urms/U∞ = 0.14% and v ′ rms/U∞ = 0.20%. The Reynolds...
