On the effect of free-stream turbulence on boundary-layer transition

JHM Fransson, S Shahinfar - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2020 - cambridge.org
Free-stream turbulence (FST) and its effect on boundary-layer transition is an intricate
problem. Elongated unsteady streamwise streaks of low and high speed are created inside …

[HTML][HTML] Stability analysis of a streaky boundary layer generated by miniature vortex generators

A Szabó, PT Nagy, G De Baets, M Vanierschot… - Computers & Fluids, 2024 - Elsevier
Delaying laminar-turbulent transition is an attractive method to reduce friction drag on

Spanwise boundary layer modulations using finite discrete suction for transition delay

SS Sattarzadeh, JHM Fransson - Experiments in Fluids, 2017 - Springer
Discrete suction is deployed in a flat plate boundary layer to create spanwise mean velocity
