THREE-DIMENSIONAL TURBULENT FLOW RESEARCH

This is a final summary report on basic research in the three-dimensional turbulent flow problem area. Research in pressure driven skewed boundary layer flows included direct force measurement of local wall shear stress, mean velocity and Reynolds stress measurements in a rectangular curved channel boundary layer and in an unconfined boundary layer, and numerical solutions of both the momentum integral and motion forms of the governing equations.
