Turbulence measurements in three-dimensional wall jets on convex cylindrical surfaces

The variation of maximum values of the turbulent normal and shear stresses in three-dimensional wall jets on convex cylindrical surfaces are described here. The curvature parameter, b/R, where b is the half width and R is the radius of curvature, is varied from 0.01 representing mild convex curvature to 1 (strong curvature). The results indicate that the maximum values of normal stresses increase with curvature parameter. The shear stresses also increase with curvature.
