Boundary layer experiments in a water channel

Lecture - dr. ir. Hendrik de Lange, Eindhoven University of Technology, Institute of Thermomechanics AS CR, v. v. i., Dolejškova 5, Prague, lecture room A , March 31, 2009, Tuesday,14:00-16:00

Main topics of the research of Dr. de Lange are the boundary layer transition, heat transfer and cooling in gas turbines and the thermodynamics and transient behavior of turbine/compressor systems.The flat plate boundary layer experiments in a water channel have been performed. The particle image velocimetry (PIV) was used to analyze the coherence of flow structures in the vicinity of breakdown to turbulence.  »»»
