Public domain · NASATechnical Reports

Overview

A transitional laminar boundary layer is developed on a 1m wide km long flat plate in a 0.6m deep water channel with a freestream velocity of 15-50 cm/s. A particulate dispenser under computer control ejects individual particles having diameters of 1/3 delta into the free stream. The particulates…
