Spatial-temporal evolution of Lagrangian structures in a transitional Mach 6 boundary layer at high Reynolds number
This paper presents an experimental investigation of the spatial-temporal evolution of Lagrangian structures in the transition process of a boundary layer with a unit Reynolds number of 9.7×10
6
/m and Mach number of 6. The development of unstable waves and the associated wall temperature distribution are measured by an infrared camera; the turbulence generation process is observed by utilizing state-of-the-art ultrafast flow visualization methods and particle image velocimetry. The results show that the second mode waves are modulated by long-wavelength and low-frequency waves
forming wave packets at the late transition stage. The evolution of Lagrangian material lines
based on the velocity fields de
rived from particle image velocimetry
demonstrates that the wave packets undergo three steps. Firstly
near-wall fluids are lifted upward to be soliton-like waves; secondly
the fluids away from the wall are swept down over the bulge
yielding a localized strong shear layer; finally
the shear layer eventually evolves into vortical structures.
