Experimental Study of the Impact of Distributed Surface Roughness on Boundary-Layer Transition over a Flat Plate

Science & Mathematics Published 2024 Verification Pending

Overview & Synopsis

An experimental study was conducted to investigate the impact of distributed surface roughness on the linear amplification of Tollmien-Schlichting instabilities in a boundary layer without pressure gradient. Two distinct types of roughness were considered: evenly distributed and stochastic. A preliminary ∆N model for predicting the onset of transition based on average roughness heights under 67 μm is proposed. Furthermore, the effect of roughness extent in the streamwise direction on boundary layer transition is also studied, proving its impact on the linear amplification of modal instabilities.
