SOME PROPERTIES OF TRUNCATED TURBULENCE SIGNALS IN BOUNDED SHEAR FLOWS

Measurement results of turbulent shear flows are re-examined. Various statistical properties of the truncated streamwise and normal velocity components u and v and of their product uv have been determined in an attempt to characterize quantitatively the motions of the flow. Average values and probability density distributions both of the truncated and untruncated signals have been taken.
