Determination of exemplary dataset of spatial fluid velocity profiles and components of the turbulent Reynolds stress tensor in air and water downstream to special pipe configuration
Project Description
An exemplary dataset of spatial fluid velocity profiles and components of the turbulent Reynolds stress tensor shall be gathered downstream to special pipe configuration (PTB perturbation plate) by means of LDV measurements. The fluids in the tests will be water and air (atmospheric). A data evaluation will be applied taking aim at statements about basic similarities as well as basic differences in the flow field development between air and water and to provide a feasibility study of possibilities to underfeed CFD applications for wide range extrapolation in Reynolds number and fluid characteristics.
