2010 Tutorial School on Fluid Dynamics: Topics in Turbulence

Compressible Turbulent Boundary Layers & Applications

Pino Martin, University of Maryland

Foundational Research in Hypersonic Boundary Layers:

• fundamental flow physics of the coupled problem
• development of a numerical capability to enable the study of the coupled problem
• validation of the numerical data, statistics and energetically dominant turbulence structure
• learning from the numerical data
• Mach number, heat transfer, real gas effects
• turbulence structure
• future directions (if time permits)
