Cross-flow and vorticity patterns in the corner boundary layer at different corner angles
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 04 July 2016
Summary
Boundary layer equations are derived for viscous high-Reynolds number flow along streamwise concave corners using a simple non-orthogonal Cartesian co-ordinate system. The equations are solved numerically for corner angles of 30°, 60°, 90°, 120° and 150°, with emphasis given to the cross-flow velocity and streamwise vorticity fields. The results are discussed in the context of the inherent instability of this boundary layer at high Reynolds numbers.
