Descriptions
A New Wind tunnel for rough wall turbulent boundary layer researches was designed and examined. The design or choice of the contraction, diffuser, honeycombs and screens is described in detail because of the strong influence of these components on tunnel performance. Measurements of mean velocity, wall shear stress, turbulence intensity and Reynolds stress are also described. From the experimental results, it may be right to consider that this tunnel has an extensive usefulness for experimental researches for rough wall turbulent boundary layers.
