ABSTRACT

NON-LINEAR BOUNDARY-LAYER RECEPTIVITY DUE TO DISTRIBUTED

SURFACE ROUGHNESS

Tahani Reffet Amer

Old Dominion University

Advisor: Dr. Gregory V. Selby

The process by which a laminar boundary layer internalizes the external disturbances in

the form of instability waves is known as boundary-layer receptivity. The objective of

the present research was to determine the effect of acoustic excitation on boundary-layer

receptivity for a fiat plate with distributed variable-amplitude surface roughness through

measurements with a hot-wire probe. Tollmien-Schlichting mode shapes due to surface-

roughness receptivity have also been determined, analyzed, and shown to be in agreement

with theory and other experimental work. It has been shown that there is a linear

relationship between the surface roughness and receptivity for certain roughness

configurations with constant roughness wavelength. In addition, strong non-linear

receptivity effects exist for certain surface roughness configurations over a band where

the surface roughness and T-S wavelength are matched. The results from the present

experiment follow the trends predicted by theory and other experimental work for linear

receptivity. In addition, the results show the existence of non-linear receptivity effects

for certain combinations of surface roughness dements.

CHAPTER 1

INTRODUCTION

In order to increase aircraft performance and lower operating cost, scientists and

aerodynamicists have been searching for ways to reduce aircraft drag. Drag on an

aircraft consists of profile drag, drag-due-to-lift, and compressibility drag. Low-drag

aircraft have been designed by taking advantage of the inherently low friction drag in

laminar boundary layers. Therefore, increasing the extent of the laminar boundary layer

by delaying transition provides a great opportunity to improve aircraft performance.

However, the actual physics of transition from laminar to turbulent flow is a complex

boundary-layer process, and must be understood in order to conceive techniques for

predicting and delaying transition.

1.1 The Tradition Proce_

The process of laminar to turbulent transition usually begins with the excitation

of instabilities in the laminar boundary layer. Most engineering flows are considered to

be unstable, if they are excited. The excitation phase is very important because it effects

the overall transition process. The transition process goes through several stages as the

flow moves downstream on a smooth flat plate. These stages are as follows (White,

1991):

Page 20: NON-LINEAR BoUNDARY,LAYER RECEPTIVITY … · NON-LINEAR BOUNDARY-LAYER RECEPTIVITY DUE TO DISTRIBUTED SURFACE ROUGHNESS Tahani Reffet Amer Old Dominion University ... Detuning of

1. Stablelaminar flow

2. Formation of unstable two-dimensional Tollmien-Schlichting waves

3. Formation of three-dimensional waves and vortex formation

4. Vortex breakdown

5. Formation of turbulent spots

6. Fully-developed turbulent flow

Figure 1 shows the six stages of the transition process for flow over a flat plate.

In step two, Tollmien-Schlichting (T-S) waves are formed and amplified due to

instabilities in the flow. T-S waves are important phenomenon in the transition process;

therefore, the present research has focused on understanding the effect of surface

roughness on T-S waves. In addition, acoustic excitation has been used as an external

disturbance which can couple with unstable T-S waves in the boundary layer.

ToUmien-Schlicting (T-S) instabilities are created in the stable region of the flow

close to the leading edge and pass through the neutral stability point into the unstable

region. These waves are two-dimensional planar traveling waves. T-S wave stability is

frequency dependent (Ball, 1987) and waves are in the stable mode when the wave fronts

are normal to the flow (Squire, 1933). The possible sources of T-S waves are free-stream

vorticity, entropy disturbances, surface vibrations, and external sound waves. What is

known as boundary-layer receptivity is the process by which the boundary layer

2

Page 21: NON-LINEAR BoUNDARY,LAYER RECEPTIVITY … · NON-LINEAR BOUNDARY-LAYER RECEPTIVITY DUE TO DISTRIBUTED SURFACE ROUGHNESS Tahani Reffet Amer Old Dominion University ... Detuning of

internalizestheenvironmentaldisturbances in the form of instability waves. Moreover,

receptivity is the mechanism by which an external disturbance couples with the boundary

layer to create an unstable T-S wave (Morkovin,1969).

Until recently, transition research has focused on the linear and non-linear

development of already existing instabilities within the boundary layer. In the last few

years, there has been a rapid growth in the understanding of the receptivity of a laminar

boundary layer to acoustic disturbances. Most of the research has been directed towards

locating the regions of the boundary layer where sound waves excite T-S waves. The

laminar boundary layer can be categorized into three regions, according to Goldstein and

Hultgren (1989). They defined the domains in which various models can be used to

perform perturbation analyses. The three regions are as follows:

Region 1. Navier-Stokes equations are used to model the flow, where non-linear

relationships exist between perturbed velocities and flow velocities.

Region 2. Linearized equations can be used to model the flow, where

perturbations are small relative to flow quantities.

Region 3. Parallel flow models can be used to model the flow, where the flow

is parallel to the model, and flow quantities are changing slowly. Stable T-S

waves are formed and started ( Goldstein, 1983).

3

Page 22: NON-LINEAR BoUNDARY,LAYER RECEPTIVITY … · NON-LINEAR BOUNDARY-LAYER RECEPTIVITY DUE TO DISTRIBUTED SURFACE ROUGHNESS Tahani Reffet Amer Old Dominion University ... Detuning of

In transitionresearch,it is very importantto identifya methodwhichcanbe used

to predict transition location. Two approaches that are used to predict transition from

laminar to turbulent flow are the exponential growth (e N) and amplitude methods.

The most widely used transition prediction technique is the eN method, which was

developed by Smith and Gamberoni (1956) and developed further by Mack (1975) and

Malik (1993). The eN method states that boundary-layer transition occurs when the

amplitude of the most unstable disturbance has grown by a factor of e N relative to the

amplitude at the lower branch of the neutral stability curve. Disturbance growth can be

calculated, from linear stability theory, after the value of "N" is determined empirically

from the experimentally determined transition location. A range of "N" between 9 and

11 corresponds to the general class of flows. The es method is still open to question, in

spite of its success in predicting transition location. The e N method incorporates

calculations from the linear amplification stage, and does not take into account receptivity

and non-linear instabilities. So, this method absorbs receptivity considerations and non-

linear flow development into the constant "N" (Heinrich, Choudhari, and Kerschen

(1988)). Neglect of the receptivity process is reflected in the different values of "N" for

flows with greatly different disturbance environments. Knowledge of the receptivity

process would provide the realistic estimates for primary instability amplitudes which are

required for calculating the value for the constant "N".

4

Page 23: NON-LINEAR BoUNDARY,LAYER RECEPTIVITY … · NON-LINEAR BOUNDARY-LAYER RECEPTIVITY DUE TO DISTRIBUTED SURFACE ROUGHNESS Tahani Reffet Amer Old Dominion University ... Detuning of

Neglectof the non-linear stage in the eN method is justified by the fact that the

non-linear process leading to transition is a very rapid process; therefore, it occupies a

negligible portion of the transition region compared to the linear stage. However,

experimental (Saric, et a1.,1990) research has shown that the non-linear stage may occur

at different Reynolds numbers, depending on the initial amplitude and frequency spectrum

of the disturbances inside the boundary layer.

In summary, an effective transition prediction method should consider both

receptivity and the non-linear growth region. Such an approach would provide a link

between the disturbance environment and unsteady motion in the boundary layer.

Moreover, a method that combines receptivity and linear stability would include the

influence of the unsteady motion in the boundary layer, and eliminate the uncertainty in

the "N" factor associated with environmental disturbances. Thus, including receptivity

effects in theoretical and experimental prediction methods is important in the process of

transition prediction.

1.2 Thg Rg_:eptivitv Phenomena

Receptivity, as defined by Kerschen (1989,1987), is the process by which external

disturbances generate instability waves in the boundary-layer. The understanding of the

physics behind the receptivity process is the accomplishment of Goldstein and his co-

workers (1987). The receptivity phenomenon targets the generation and initiation of

5

Page 24: NON-LINEAR BoUNDARY,LAYER RECEPTIVITY … · NON-LINEAR BOUNDARY-LAYER RECEPTIVITY DUE TO DISTRIBUTED SURFACE ROUGHNESS Tahani Reffet Amer Old Dominion University ... Detuning of

instabilitywavesin the boundary layer; however, classical linear stability theory targets

the propagation and amplification of instabilities in boundary layer. To understand the

overall picture of the transition process, the aerodynamicist must understand the

receptivity problem, as well as the stability problem, which means that the generation and

propagation of boundary layer instability waves have to be addressed. Classical stability

theory has been studied for many years, and methods have been identified to control the

propagation of instabilities, such as wall suction, heating or cooling, and favorable

pressure gradients.

In recent years, there has been a great effort to understand the receptivity concept

and its features. Fortunately, great progress has been made in predicting receptivity and

understanding stability. A complete overview of the transition process, with an emphasis

on receptivity, has been given by Goldstein (1987), Hishioka and Morkovin (1986),

Kerschen (1989,1987), Heinrich (1988), Goldstein and Hultgren (1987), Choudhari and

Streett (1990), Wiegel and Wlezien (1993), and Wlezien (1989,1990,1994).

Acoustic receptivity refers to the excitation of boundary-layer T-S instability

waves by acoustic disturbances. Usually, the wavelengths of the acoustic disturbances are

much longer than those of T-S waves (Choudhari, i990); therefore, a wavelength

conversion process is required to tune the signature of the external acoustic disturbance

to the T-S wavelength in the boundary layer. Energy transfer from the acoustic

disturbanceto the T-S instability wavesoccurswhen the two wavelengthsmatch.

Goldsteinshowed that the spatial tuning required for the wavelength conversion process

occurs when the acoustic disturbance is scattered by short-scale irregularities in the flow.

Goldstein defines three cases of short-scale irregularities:

a)

b)

c)

Sharp leading edge (Goldstien,1989; Wlezien, et a1.,1990)

Adverse pressure gradients (Smith, 1956; Nishioka and Morkovin,1986)

Short-scale variations in surface, such as surface roughness

(Aizin,1979; Saric, et al., 1990; Wiegel and Wlezien,1993)

Occurrence of receptivity requires an unsteady scattered field to have the

wavelength of the T-S instability wave. Moreover, Goldstein's work suggests that in

subsonic regions, overall receptivity in the boundary layer is dominated by surface

irregularities in the region near the lower branch of the neutral stability curve.

Consistent with this finding, the present research focuses on the effect of acoustic

disturbances and surface roughness on T-S waves.

Previous experiments have helped to provide further understanding of the

receptivity mechanism. In the early work of Schubauer and Skramstad (1947), sound was

identified as one of the factors that affected transition location. Their experiment was

considered to be the first leading-edge receptivity experiment. They attached a sound

sourceto the top of the tunnel at the leading edge of the plate. R was demonstrated that

a T-S disturbance could be induced by choosing the appropriate frequency for a given

flow speed. In a subsequent experiment, Spangler and Wells (1968) directed pure sound

into the inlet of the wind tunnel. They noticed that the degree to which the transition

location was shifted was determined by the frequency of the sound. The first published

results from an investigation of the effect of a surface inhomogeneity coupled with

acoustic excitation was performed by Aizin and Polyakov (1979). Strong effects on

receptivity were observed. In 1984, Ruban showed analytically, by using an asymptotic

method, that a small surface roughness on a plate could excite T-S waves. The sound

waves interacted with local surface roughness to excite the T-S waves.

In recent works by Wlezien (1989) and Wlezien and Parekh (1990), acoustic

receptivity phenomena associated with two different geometries (the leading edge and a

suction slo0 were investigated. It was difficult to distinguish between different

receptivity mechanisms; thus, it is important to remove any receptivity mechanism which

is extraneous to an experiment. Leehey and Shapiro (1980) showed that T-S waves can

be generated at a low-aspect ratio leading edge of 6:1. This result was consistent with

the analytical result obtained by Goldstein and Hultgren (1987) in which leading-edge

receptivity was addressed. Recent experiments performed by Saric, et al. (1980) and

Wiegel and Wlezien (1993), and recent theory developed by Crouch (1990) and

Choudhad (1990) have addressed the effect of wall roughness on the receptivity process

Page 27: NON-LINEAR BoUNDARY,LAYER RECEPTIVITY … · NON-LINEAR BOUNDARY-LAYER RECEPTIVITY DUE TO DISTRIBUTED SURFACE ROUGHNESS Tahani Reffet Amer Old Dominion University ... Detuning of

and consideredeither localized irregularities or non-localized surface irregularities.

These irregularities usually create steady short-wavelength disturbances that interact with

the external unsteady acoustic disturbance to produce a traveling wave field. The

traveling wave has the frequency of the acoustic wave and the wave number of the

surface irregularities. Receptivity occurs when the frequency and wave number of the

generated traveling wave match the T-S wave. Localized receptivity generated by a wall

roughness has been analyzed using asymptotic analysis by Crouch and Bertolotti (1992).

Non-localized receptivity generated by surface irregularities over an extended streamwise

distance has been analyzed by non-linear mode-interaction theory, which is based on the

Orr-Sommerfeld equation (Crouch, 1991). Crouch's results have shown that in general,

non-localized receptivity is an order-of-magnitude stronger than localized receptivity

because non-localized receptivity occurs over an extended streamwise range, which

results in T-S wave streamwise growth rate. In the present experiment, non-localized

receptivity was studied and analyzed in terms of the mode shape of the T-S waves.

Choudhari (1994) and Crouch (199.2) analyzed non-localized receptivity due to

acoustic forcing. Both predicted that receptivity would be produced only at a narrow

band of wall wavelengths near the instability wavelength of the acoustic forcing

frequency. An experiment by Wiegel and Wlezien (1993) showed that strong receptivity

occurred over a narrow band where the waviness of the surface irregularities and the T-S

wavelength were matched.

Crouch (1991) developed an analyticalmodel for acoustic receptivityof a

boundary layerfora collectionof modes resultingfrom surfaceirregularities.He studied

the complex process in which freestreamdisturbanceswith long wavelengths initiate

short-wavedisturbancesina boundary layer.Crouch attemptedtodetermineifnon-linear

receptivityexisted with multiple forced modes. By using an analyticalmodel, he

predictedthatnonlocalizedreceptivityover rough surfaceswith multipleforced modes

would acttoenergizethe T-S mode. He determined thatthecalculationof theT-S mode

amplitudeand phase must account forthe contributionsfrom allrelevantforcedmodes,

which would allow thccalculationof the totaldisturbanceof the T-S mode as the sum

of the forcedmodes. Crouch showed thatthe totalamplitude of the T-S waves has a

larger-than-lineargrowth over a regionextendingwell downstream of branch I of the

stabilitycurve.

1.3 Present Research

In the present experiment, receptivity as a function of wall roughness has been

investigated under the influence of external forced acoustic disturbances. The present

research is related to the work of Saric (1990) and Wiegel and Wlezicn (1993). The

primary purpose of the present research was to determine if non-linear receptivity due to

wall roughness exists and to make measurements to be used to validate theoretical and

CHAPTER 2

EXPERIMENTAL SET-UP

2.1 Experimental Equipment

2.1.1 Wind Tunnel

The experiment was conducted in the 2 ftx 3 ft (0.6m x 0.9m) Low-Speed Wind

Tunnel in the Flow Modeling and Control Branch of NASA Langley Research Center.

Figures 2 and 3 are schematics of the plan and side views of the closed-loop wind tunnel.

The tunnel fan is powered by a 150 (maximum) horsepower motor, delivering a

maximum velocity of 43 m/s tunnel test section. The tunnel has four sets of turning

vanes and several sets of honeycomb and screens to straighten the airflow in the test

section. The tunnel has been modified to improve the quality of the airflow in the test

section by the installation of a newly designed fan fairing to the fan housing, by the

removal of several of the 1/2-in copper tubes originally used as heat exchangers, and by

design and installation of a new adjustable test-section ceiling.

2.1.2 Test Model

The test model consisted of a flat plate made of aluminum jig plate, a leading

edge, and a variable-angle flap. The flap was attached to the aft end of the model in

order to adjust the stagnation line by varying the flap angle. The test model was 2.74m

12

long, 0.91mwide, and0.0127mthick. Theelliptical leadingedgehadanaspectratio

of 24:1. This aspectratio waschosenfor the leadingedgebecauseit was found by

Wlezien(1990)thatleading-edgereceptivityisminimizedwith aleading-edgeaspectratio

of 24:1. Thetestmodelhadto bevery smoothto minimizesurfaceroughnesseffectson

receptivity.To accomplishthis, thetestmodelwasbuffedwith afine-gradematerialand

polishedwith jewelry polish. The testmodelwassupportedby four screw jacks. Two

of the screw jacks were located downstream of the leading edge and the other two were

upstream of the flap hinge connection (see Figure 4). For the present tests, the angle-of-

attack of the test model was set at 0.0107 ° using the screw jacks.

2.1.3 Traverse System

In the wind tunnel test section, a newly designed traverse system (Smith, 1995)

was installed in the test section to position the probe. The traverse system was mounted

in the top of the test section by aluminum brackets. The system was placed at the center

of the test-section ceiling through a slot (0.02m wide and 2.44m long). This slot was

covered with fine black brushes, manufactured by Power Brushes,Iinc., to minimize the

air flowing from the test-section (see Figure 5). The traverse system was two-

dimensional. The streamwise (x) range of the traverse system was from 0.0 to 2.1m and

the vertical (y) range was from 0.0 to 0.1524m. The accuracy of the traverse system was

_.+ 160 _m/m in the streamwise range and _.+ 33 _m/m in the vertical range. The traverse

13

system was controlled by a SUN SPARC workstation computer using a Unidex 12

traverse control unit.

2.1.4 A_;oustic System

Acoustic disturbances were used to excite the T-S waves in the boundary layer.

These disturbances were created by four acoustic sources installed in the wind tunnel.

Four speakers were placed upstream of the fourth set of turning vanes and honeycomb

section in a square arrangement to provide a plane sound wave in the test section. The

fifth speaker was located after the first set of turning vans and honeycomb section

downstream of the test section. Each 8-ohm speaker consisted of 203 mm diameter

polypropylene woofers, which provided a frequency response of 40-3000 hz. The

speakers were driven by a Hewlett Packard Universal Source that generated sine waves

at varying frequency. This signal was fed to an amplifier and then to the speakers. Each

speaker was placed inside an airtight wooden box to normalize the pressure between the

inside and outside of the wind tunnel. Moreover, a 6.35 mm hole was drilled through the

tunnel waU into the wooden box to equalize the pressure across the diaphragm of the

speakers.

Instrumentation and Data Acquisition

Pitot-$tati¢ Probe_

Two standard pitot-static probes were used to measure the differential pressure

(total - static). The differential pressure was measured in mm Hg with an electronic

manometer whose ports were connected through tubing to the probe orifices. The velocity

in the test section was calculated from this pressure differential measurement. One probe

used to determine freest.ream velocity was placed near the front of the test model. The

other pressure probe used to calibrate the hot-wire probe was located above the test model

next to the resistance temperature detector (see Figure 6). The inherent error associated

with a pitot-static probe is usually about 0.01% of the pressure reading (Rae & Pope,

1984). To minimize system errors, each manometer was zeroed before taking any

measurements.

2.2.2 Resi,stancf Temperature Detector

The freestream temperature was measured using a resistance temperature detector

(RTD). The RTD consisted of a sensing element, a sheath, lead wire, and connection.

The sensing element is made of 99.99% pure platinum wound about a ceramic core and

sealed in a ceramic capsule. Platinum wire is chosen because it is mechanically and

electrically stable and the sensing elements conform to a standard curve with a =0.000385

ohms/ohm/*C. The RTD sheath is a closed end tube that provides protection to the

15

Page 34: NON-LINEAR BoUNDARY,LAYER RECEPTIVITY … · NON-LINEAR BOUNDARY-LAYER RECEPTIVITY DUE TO DISTRIBUTED SURFACE ROUGHNESS Tahani Reffet Amer Old Dominion University ... Detuning of

sensingelement. The RTD operates on the principle of change in electrical resistance

in the wire as a function of temperature. The resistance of the circuit was dependent on

the temperature in the freestream. The RTD has a temperature range from

-50 to 600"C. The error inherent in such an instrument, according to the manufacture

(Omega), is about 0.02% of the total temperature.

2.2.3 tto¢-Wir_ Anemometer

A constant-temperature hot-wire anemometer was used to measure the streamwise

component of the instantaneous velocity in the test section. The hot-wire probe consisted

of a fine tungsten wire with a diameter of 5_m and a length of 1.25mm.

The electrical circuit for the constant-temperature anemometer kept the wire

temperature constant through adjustment of the current. When the flow passed through

the probe, the hot-wire cooled down by convection cooling and the resistance of hot-wire

changed causing an unbalance of the electric circuit. The current was adjusted to keep the

temperature constant. A TSI, Incorporated, Intelligent Flow Analyzer 100 was used in

operating the hot-wire anemometer system with an overheat ratio of 1.8.

2.2.4 Data Acauisition System

The 2'x 3' Low Speed Wind Tunnel was equipped with a Hewlett Packard Data

Acquisition and Control System. This system was used to process data from the

16

experimentalinstruments.Thesystemhad8 slotswhichserved6 multiplexersplusother

devices.A multiplexeris anelectronicdevicethatswitcheseachchannelfor ashortfinite

period of time from analog to digital (Rae & Pole, 1984). Each multiplexer had 20

channels and each channel had an electrical input from an experimental instrument such

as a pitot-statie probe, RTD and etc. The control system was connected to the Sun

workstation by a GPIB( General Purpose Interface Bus)- IEEE interface.

2.2.5 Soectrum Analyzer

A Spectrum Analyzer manufactured by Hewlett Packard was used to acquire data

from the hot-wire anemometer. The analyzer displayed the amplitude and the relative

phase of the hot-wire signal. The analyzer consisted of two channels. One was connected

to a signal generator which provided a sinusoidal wave with maximum amplitude of 0.5v

and a variable frequency. The other channel was connected to the hot-wire anemometer.

The signal from the hot-wire probe was passed through a filter that eliminated undesired

frequencies in the signal.

2.2.6 Computer Sv_em

A SPARC SUN workstation was used to gather data from the experimental

devices via GPIB-IEEE cable. The software for experimental data acquisition was

developed by I. Smith. She used the LabView graphics-based programming language.

CHAPTER 3

EXPERIMENTAL TECHNIQUES

3.1 H0t-Wire Calibration

During the experiment, calibration of the hot-wire probe was required several

times. Freestream temperature and voltage as a function of freestream velocity were

required for each calibration of the hot-wire probe. Because the wind tunnel is a closed-

loop type, the temperature normally drifts until it reaches equilibrium inside the tunnel.

Therefore, the wind tunnel was warmed-up prior to taking any measurements in order to

minimize temperature drift. The warm-up time for the tunnel was found to be about five

minutes. The output voltage was corrected for ambient temperature drift in the tunnel.

The correction was accomplished using the following equation (Wiegel, 1992):

18

Page 37: NON-LINEAR BoUNDARY,LAYER RECEPTIVITY … · NON-LINEAR BOUNDARY-LAYER RECEPTIVITY DUE TO DISTRIBUTED SURFACE ROUGHNESS Tahani Reffet Amer Old Dominion University ... Detuning of

Calibrationwas accomplished by positioning the hot-wire at the same streamwi,_

and vertical coordinates as the aft pitot-static probe. The flow velocity measured by the

aft pitot-static rv'abe at these coordinates was considered the reference calibration

velocity. A fourth-order polynomial was fit to the acquired calibration data to obtain the

applicable coefficients. The form of the polynomial relationship between velocity and

voltage is:

U = ao + a_e + a_e 2 + a3e3 + a4e 4

Where: U _ freestream velocity

e -= voltage

ao, al, a2, a3, a4 = polynomial coefficients

Several methods were utilized to minimize the error in calibrating the hot-wire

probe: 1) using a wide range of velocities (0.0-20.0 m/s), 2) providing adequate time

averaging (3 seconds) when taking measurements, 3) applying a fourth-order polynomial

to calibration data, 4) repeating the calibration process if the standard deviation from the

measured calibration curve was more than 2.5 %, and 5) allowing the tunnel to warm up

before taking measurements (to reduce temperature drift).

3.2 Chordwise Pressure Gradient

Pressure gradients influence the initial linear instability and the breakdown of the

laminar boundary layer. The neutral stability curve is strongly influenced by pressure

gradient, as described by White (1979) (see Figure 7). Therefore, it was important to

19

Page 38: NON-LINEAR BoUNDARY,LAYER RECEPTIVITY … · NON-LINEAR BOUNDARY-LAYER RECEPTIVITY DUE TO DISTRIBUTED SURFACE ROUGHNESS Tahani Reffet Amer Old Dominion University ... Detuning of

have zerofreestream pressure gradient in the tunnel test section in order to minimize the

effect of pressure gradient on receptivity and to be able to compare results to the Blasius

boundary-layer solution.

Three steps were taken to obtain zero pressure gradient in the freestream direction

in the test section. The first step was to adjust the stagnation point on the test model,

which was done by deflecting the variable-angle flap (see Figure 6). The flap was

deflected in incremental angles and an oil/fluorescent dye mixture was used to visualize

the flow by applying it on and around the leading edge on both the top and bottom

i

surfaces. By focusing a black light on the leading edge, separation bubbles and

stagnation lines were noted at each flap angle. Results showed that a flap deflection

angle of 1.80 degrees ensured that the stagnation line was on the upper surface and there

was no separation bubble on the lower surface. The second step was to define the

streamwise static pressure and then adjust the plate to attain dp/dx-0. Measurement of

the pressure gradient was accomplished by using a pitot-statie probe mounted on the

traverse mechanism. The angle-of-attack of the plate was adjusted by using four screw

jacks located under the plate, until approximately zero streamwise pressure gradient was

achieved. Typical results are presented in terms of pressure coefficient as a function of

position in Figure 8.

The next step was to obtain boundary-layer velocity profiles every 200 mm in the

x-direction from 400ram to 1800ram from the leading edge of the plate. For each case,

20

Page 39: NON-LINEAR BoUNDARY,LAYER RECEPTIVITY … · NON-LINEAR BOUNDARY-LAYER RECEPTIVITY DUE TO DISTRIBUTED SURFACE ROUGHNESS Tahani Reffet Amer Old Dominion University ... Detuning of

values of the displacementthickness,momentumthickness,and shapefactor were

calculated. After several velocity profiles were measured, the pressure gradient was

evaluated by plotting shape factor as a function of position in the streamwise direction.

The final velocity profiles were compared to the Blasius profile to confirm the existence

of a zero-pressure-gradient laminar boundary layer.

3.3 T_n_i_;ion Reynolds Number

Transition Reynolds number (R%) is defined as the Reynolds number at which

transition from laminar to turbulent flow occurs. Transition Reynolds Number is

considered to be a measure of the flow quality in a wind tunnel. If the wind tunnel has

a transition Reynolds Number on the order of 1.5 million or greater, there is an extensive

region of laminar flow present ( Rae & Pope, 1984).

In the present experiment, transition Reynolds Number was measured using a hot-

wire probe. Measurements with the hot-wire probe were made at two different

streamwise locations (1800mm and 1950mm from the leading edge) for each run, and at

the vertical location where U/Uo = 0.2 at a freestream velocity of 12.5 m/s. Next,

freestream velocity was incrementally increased and three parameters were measured

u/Uo, Uo, and temperature. In the laminar regime, u/Uo increases slowly with increasing

freestream velocity (maximum U., =43m/s). However when transition occurs in the flow,

a noticeable increase occurs in the value of u/Uo. A value for transition Reynolds

numberwasdeterminedto be4.6 million for the present experiment, which established

the wind tunnel as having excellent flow quality.

3.4 Acoustic Field Characterization

It was important to characterize the test-section acoustic environment and identify

what kind of waves existed in the test section. Reference data for the acoustic wave

components were obtained in the freestrearn outside the boundary layer. Freestream

acoustic measurements were alternately obtained using the upstream speakers and the

downstream speaker. A sinusoidal voltage with an amplitude of 0.5 volts was supplied

to the speakers via an amplifier at a frequency of 80 Hz. Acoustic waves were emitted

by the upstream speakers at forcing frequencies of 72, 80, 86, and 90 hz. Downstream

measurements were made with a hot-wire probe at each frequency. Data were obtained

at 64 streamwise locations in increments of 34 mm so as to cover a distance of 2.1 meters

( equal to half a wavelength at a forcing frequency of 80 hertz). These streamwise

measurements were used to determine the type of waves present in the test section. In

addition, acoustic measurements were made in the vertical direction at three streamwise

positions. For acoustic measurements, the signal from the hot-wire anemometer was

passed at a gain of I00 through a filter with a bandwidth of 10 to 100 Hz. At each

frequency, the amplitude of the signal and the relative phase between the measured signal

and supply signal were recorded.

Becausethis experimentwas conductedin a closed-loopwind tunnel with

andWlezien,1992). In this experiment,the methoddevelopedby Wiegel (1992)was

usedto decomposethe acousticwaveand its reflection. Figures20 and 21 show the

resultsof applyingthisdecompositionmethod.

3.5 Mode-Shape Mea..surements

The primary purpose of this experiment was to acquire data for the unstabIe T-S

mode shape under different conditions. Velocity profiles were defined by talcing hot-

wire measurements at sixty-four data points in the y-direction. For each velocity profile,

the displacement thickness, momentum thickness, and the shape factor were calculated.

In addition, acoustic phase and amplitude were obtained outside the boundary layer by

taking four data points in the y-direction in increments of 15 mm starting at 120 mm

above the test plate. These data were required to decompose the fluctuating component

of the total signal into T-S and acoustic wave components.

To determine the T-S mode-shapes, it was required that of the Stokes wave be

removed from the total fluctuating velocity (u',). The theoretical Stokes-layer profile is

CHAPTER 4

CHARACTERIZATION OF TEST-SECTION FLOW

Characterization of the flow over the test plate was accomplished by measuring

the boundary-layer velocity profiles, flow quality, acoustic field, and Tollmien-

Schlichting wave parameters.

4.1 Boundary-Laver Velocity Profiles

In this experiment, it was required to precisely locate the effective leading-edge

of the boundary layer. The physical leading edge of the test model was not the effective

leading edge of the experimental model due to non-zero pressure gradients and test-

section physical geometry. In order to precisely locate the effective leading edge of the

model, which is called the virtual leading edge, several boundary-layer velocity profiles

were measured using a hot-wire anemometer. The experimental data and the following

equation from White (1991) were used to obtain the virtual leading edge for the present

experimental conditions.

the plate between 400 mm to 2000 mm at Uo = 12.5 m/s. For all profiles, a*, o, and

The x-xv datawere curve-fit using the least-squares technique to obtain a new

reference location which was 80.0 mm downstream of the physical leading edge. Figures

16 and 17 show the relationship of the Blasius boundary layer to the experimental results.

4.2 Flow Oualitv

An important parameter in this experiment is R_, the transition Reynolds number.

The flow quality of the wind tunnel is related to Re_. The value of Retr is about 1.5 x 106

for a tunnel with good flow quality (Rae & Pope,1984). In this experiment, Retr is 4.6

x 106; therefore, the tunnel exhibited exceptionally good flow quality and was considered

acoustically quiet (see Figure 18).

Moreover, flow contamination interference due to the tunnel sidewalls was

measured using flow visualization. The model was sprayed with naphthalene from the

leading edge to the trailing edge, then the tunnel was run to 12.5 m/s and the region of

sidewall contamination was easily distinguished. Flow interference was confined to a 11.4

wedge at both sidewalls (see Figure 19).

4.3 Acoustic-Field

It was noted that in a closed-loop wind tunnel, the acoustic field inside the test

section is a combination of downstream and upstream traveling wave components. The

process of characterizing the acoustic field included activating the upstream speakers at

28

Page 47: NON-LINEAR BoUNDARY,LAYER RECEPTIVITY … · NON-LINEAR BOUNDARY-LAYER RECEPTIVITY DUE TO DISTRIBUTED SURFACE ROUGHNESS Tahani Reffet Amer Old Dominion University ... Detuning of

variousfrequenciesfrom 72 to 90Hz andthenindependentlyactivatingthedownstream

spea_r.

For all experimental measurements, the reconstruction data, that was obtained by

combining superposing the decomposed upstream traveling wave, which should have

reproduced the same acoustic amplitude and phase, did not match the original data well,

except at higher frequencies (see Figure 20). It was noted that with an at 80-hz signal

from the upstream speakers, the amplitude was fairly constant and the phase was linear

in the streamwise direction. Therefore, it was concluded that a plane traveling wave

existed at 80 hz, along with a weak standing wave. Figure 21 shows both amplitude and

phase for the 80 hz. signal. The frequency of 80 hz was found to be the most suitable

for the experiment (using the upstream speakers only).

Measurements of wave amplitude and phase variations normal to the test plate

were acquired for three different streamwise (x) locations. All three profiles showed

fairly constant amplitude and phase variations in the y-direction, which indicated that an

acoustic field of plane waves existed in the tunnel test section above the plate.

It is very important to address the issue of ambient background noise when

conducting receptivity experiments, because the response to acoustic excitation is of small

amplitude. In this experiment, freestream hot-wire measurements were made at x =

1345 mm with and without an 80 hz. acousticsignal. For the case without acoustic

input,the measurements are of the ambient acousticsignaldue toa combination of the

turbulentboundary layerin the tunnel,freestreamturbulence,and the tunnelfan. For

the case with acousticinput,the measurements included the effecton the laminar

boundary layer through the receptivitymechanism (see Figure 22). Preliminary

boundary-layer measurements indicateda responseof T-S waves to acousticexcitation.

It is desirable in the region of interest to have the T-S wave scales vary linearly

with the level of acoustic excitation. To verify linearity, T-S mode shapes were acquired

at three different level of acoustic excitation. The ratio between two runs of maximum

amplitude of the T-S wave (u',..m,D is 1.73, and the ratio between two runs of (u',c o) is

1.70 for Runs 1 and 2. See Table 2 for a summary of the results for Runs 1 and 3.

These results verify the lincarity.

The mode shape of the T-S waves due to the effect of surface-roughness

receptivity was extracted by removing the Stokes-layer receptivity effects. For example,

measurements for varying surface-roughness configurations were taken at x = 1345 mm

and at Uo = 12.5 m/s. Figures 33a and 33b show the results for one configuration. The

normalized mode shape is presented to enable comparison to an appropriate theoretical

stability analysis. The phase variation of the T-S waves is plotted as a function of

normalized y-position in Figure 33b.

In this experiment, it was important to determine the growth of T-S waves in the

streamwise direction. This task has been accomplished by making several mode-shape

measurements in the streamwise direction from x = 1105 mm to x = 1345 mm in

increments of 30 mm. Moreover, measurements were made at x ffi 1545, 1745, and

1945 mm to determine further changes in the T-S wave amplitude. For this test, the

surface roughness was configured as follows: eleven tape strips of 1" wide x 2.3 mil

thickness and between them were four strips of 1/8 _ wide x 5 mil thickness all located

at the lower branch. The freestream velocity for all cases was 12.5 m/s. Figure 42

shows the normalized streamwise T-S wave growth, with external forcing for all cases.

CHAPTER 5

EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS

5.1 Surface Waviness ConfieuratiQns

In the present experiment, geometric simulation of a sinusoidal wavy wall was

necessary to provide wall wavelengths on the order of the wavelength of the T-S waves,

in order for the receptivity phenomenon to occur. However, this ideal geometry is not

possible to construct, so a more realistic approach had to be devised. Acoustic waves

which matched the T-S waves in frequency and wavelength could provide a mechanism

for energy transfer to the boundary layer; however, the mismatch in wavelengths would

prevent this transfer from occurring. Since the acoustic wavelength is much longer than

the T-S wavelength, a reduction in length scale was required to facilitate the aforesaid

energy transfer. This was accomplished through using various surface roughness

configurations (rectangular tape strips) to serve as scattering sites for the acoustic waves.

The scattered acoustic field contained acoustic waves at wavelengths and frequencies on

the order of the T-S waves, thus providing a mechanism for energy transfer from the

acoustic field to the T-S waves. As a consequence of linear receptivity, the amplitude of

the resulting T-S wave was expected to be linearly related to the height of the distributed

surface roughness and the acoustic wave amplitude.

Mathematic.ally,the addition of two sine waves (linear interaction) with wave

numbers K s and IQ separated by an amount of 2K1 with Kl < <: K2 < IQ will result in the

same aggregate wave as the product of two sine waves (non-linear interaction) with wave

numbers KI and K3=('K2+K4)/2 (see Figures 24,25). Consequently, the sine warewith

wave number K ! (long wavelength on the order of the T-S waves) can bc considered the

results of the non-linear interaction of the wave modes at Ks and IQ; therefore,

accommodating a transfer of energy at the wave number K l (to the T-S waves) through

the non-linear receptivity phenomenon. The wave number spectrum associated with the

present wall-roughness configurations is similar to that for a purely sinusoidal wall ( e.g.

at wave number KI) for wall-roughness configurations 1, 2, and 3 (spectrum also includes

higher harmonics due to sharp edges). Then, these configurations are expected to have

an effect on T-S waves through the phenomenon of linear receptivity. In addition, the

wave number spectrum associated with wall-roughness configurations 5, 6, and 7

resembles the spectrum previouslydescribedas composed of dual modes K 2 and K,).

Then, theselatterconfigurationsare expected to affectthe T-S waves through the non-

linearreceptivityphenomenon. Schematics ofthe seven surfaceroughnessconfigurations

testedin the presentexperiment are presentedinFigure 23.

Tape height and thickness variations effect boundary-layer receptivity and were

concerns when choosing the thickness of each configuration. Saric, Hoos, and

Radeztsky (1991) have stated that departure from linear behavior occurs when the

reattachment length exceeds the roughness height. This could result in the formation of

a free shear layer that has its own instability, which may effect the receptivity process.

In addition, they observed that the critical roughness-height Reynolds number is

approximately Reb_ 150. Thus, Re_ defines a hydraulically smooth surface. In the

present research, Re_ was varied, but remained below the critical value for all seven cases

(see Table 3). _.

5.2 Surface Wave-Number Spectra

It was desirable to study the wave number spectra of all seven roughness

configurations with respect to the thickness of the tape strips and consequently, the effect

on linear and non-linear receptivity. For configurations 1, 2, and 3, a power spectrum

35

Page 54: NON-LINEAR BoUNDARY,LAYER RECEPTIVITY … · NON-LINEAR BOUNDARY-LAYER RECEPTIVITY DUE TO DISTRIBUTED SURFACE ROUGHNESS Tahani Reffet Amer Old Dominion University ... Detuning of

analysisusingdiscreteFourier spectra was accomplished and the results are shown in

Figures 26, 27, and 28. The case in Figure 26 simulates the addition of sine waves that

produces one large peak at low wave number and several small peaks at multiples of the

first wave number, due to harmonics in the signal resulting from the fact that the wall

was not a pure sine wave wall (rectangular tape strips). As tape thickness increased ( see

configurations 2 and 3), the peak amplitude increased at the same wave number that

provided input to the linear receptivity phenomena.

The power spectra for configurations 5, 6, and 7 are shown in Figures 30, 31,

and 32. Figure 30 illustrates the case that is considered to correspond to purely weak

non-linear receptivity effects, because the height of the wider tape (longer wavelength)

was almost half of the thinner tape (shorter wavelength). Therefore, the linear receptivity

effect for this configuration was attenuated and non-linear receptivity effects dominated.

With increases to the thickness of the longer wavelength tape, the linear receptivity effect

increased linearly. The results of these cases are shown in Figures 30 and 31. Notice

that in these configurations, the non-linear portion of the power spectra was distorted due

to the increase of harmonics in the signal (caused by the rectangular tape comers).

For configuration 4 which included only short wavelength tapes, the power

spectrum analysis showed that both linear and non-linear receptivity effects existed and

36

Page 55: NON-LINEAR BoUNDARY,LAYER RECEPTIVITY … · NON-LINEAR BOUNDARY-LAYER RECEPTIVITY DUE TO DISTRIBUTED SURFACE ROUGHNESS Tahani Reffet Amer Old Dominion University ... Detuning of

there were phase shifts in the non-linear portion. At this time, the power spectrum results

for this case axe difficult to reconcile with the other results (see Figure 32).

5,3 Tollmien-Schlichtin_ Mode ShaDes

Mode-shape profiles were acquired at a constant streamwise position of x = 1345

mm from the leading edge for nine different freestream velocities ranging from 10.5 m/s

to 14.5 m/s. Measurements for different configurations were taken at the same y-position.

Phase and amplitude of the acoustic field was calculated outside the boundary layer

because these data were needed to decompose the total fluctuating signal into a T-S wave

component and an acoustic-field wave component.

Figures 33 to 39 show the mode shape of the T-S waves due to wavy-wall

receptivity for the different configurations of wall roughness strips. From these figures,

it can be concluded that the ratio between the T-S wave amplitude and the acoustic wave

amplitude increases with an increase in roughness height. Mode shapes shown in Figures

33a to 39a match well for values below the zero crossing. All phase variations of

decomposed T-S waves show the expected 180 ° phase shift at a value of ylt* _ 2.0,

which is the exact position of the zero crossing of the mode shape.

5.4 Detunin2 of Tollmien-Sehlichtin2 Waves

There are two parameters that can affect the wavelength of T-S waves; one is

freestream velocity and the other is acoustic frequency. In the experiments by Wlezien

(1989) and Parekh, el a1.(1990), the freestream acoustic frequency was varied and the

effect on T-S wavelength was determined. In this experiment, the free.stream velocity was

the parameter which was varied because with an acoustic forcing frequency of 80 hz, a

minimal standing wave component existed in the test section. Therefore, it was important

to conduct the experiments at a single acoustic frequency, which left the freestream

velocity as the parameter to vary. The resulting change in T-S wavelength was used to

investigate the effect of mismatching the excited T-S wavelength and the wavelength

associated with surface roughness configurations, which is called the detuning effect.

B

Crouch (1992) and Choudhari (1990) made theoretical predictions covering a

detuning range of o ffi :i: 10%. Therefore, freestream velocity was varied from Uo =

10.5 m/s to 14.5 m/s to investigate the detuning effect upon changing the freestream

velocity. The position of the lower branch of the stability curve changes about two

surface-roughness wavelengths downstream and upstream of the first surface roughness

tape strip over the detuning range (Crouch, 1992). There is only a narrow region around

the lower branch that is sensitive to surface roughness, as shown from previous research

(Wiegel,1992). Therefore, in the present experiment, two wavelengths of surface

38

Page 57: NON-LINEAR BoUNDARY,LAYER RECEPTIVITY … · NON-LINEAR BOUNDARY-LAYER RECEPTIVITY DUE TO DISTRIBUTED SURFACE ROUGHNESS Tahani Reffet Amer Old Dominion University ... Detuning of

roughness were simulated by extending roughness strips far upstream and downstream of

the lower branch.

Detuning effects are displayed in Figures 40 and 41 for all seven configurations.

These figures display the ratio between the maximum amplitude of the T-S wave and the

free.stream acoustic wave amplitude, as a function of freestream velocity. The T-S

detuning results for these configurations indicate that u',. _x/u',c decreases sym metrically

with increasing and decreasing freestream velocity about a frecstream velocity of 12.5

m/s. A strong detuning effect with little scatter of the data is observed, which is

consistent with Wiegel's (1992) measurements. Figure 40 also shows the same strong

detuning effects for the other surface roughness configurations. For each configuration,

maximum tuning occurs around a freestream velocity of 12.5 m/s and resulting values of

u'a.m,x/u',o are shown in Table 4.

Figure 40 shows the T-S detuning effects for configurations 1, 2, and 3, which

are based on the one-inch wide wall roughness element with varying tape thicknesses.

Results show that an increase in the roughness thickness (wavy-wall height) results in a

linear increase in the T-S wave amplitude.

Figure 41 shows the detuning effects for configurations 4, 5, 6, and 7, which are

composed of combinations of tape widths of 1_ and 1/8" with varying thicknesses. The

results show that an increase in the roughness height increases the amplitude of the T-S

waves linearly, but the magnitude of the T-S amplitude in these configurations is lower

than for configurations 1, 2, 3, and 4.

5.5 Streamwise Toilmien-Schlichtin2 Wave Growth

Mode shape measurements were obtained at different streamwise positions to

determine the T-S wave growth in the streamwise direction. These measurements were

obtained with hot-wire probe positions from x --" 1105 mm to x - 1345 mm with a

spacing of 30 mm in the x-direction. The freestream velocity was U. = 12.5 m/s.

Figure 42 shows the normalized streamwise T-S growth with external acoustic forcing as

a function of the boundary-layer Reynolds number. These results match the findings of

Wiegel and Wlezien (1992), which matched theoretical results obtained from Choudhari

(1990). The matching of these results confirms the presence of a zero-pressure gradient

40

Page 59: NON-LINEAR BoUNDARY,LAYER RECEPTIVITY … · NON-LINEAR BOUNDARY-LAYER RECEPTIVITY DUE TO DISTRIBUTED SURFACE ROUGHNESS Tahani Reffet Amer Old Dominion University ... Detuning of

in the streamwise direction, since the growth of the T-S wave amplitude is affected by

the streamwise pressure gradient.

5.6 Linear and Non-Linear Receptivity

Finally, for each configuration, results from the mode-shape analysis provided

the T-S wave amplitude and the results from the power-spectrum analysis provided the

wall roughness wave number. Figure 43 shows the fluctuating velocity component of the

T-S wave as a function of the wave number for configurations 1 and 3. Figure 44

includes these results for configurations 4, 5, 6, and 7. For configurations 1 and 3, it

is seen that there is a linear receptivity phenomenon present, which means that the

amplitude of the T-S waves produced by the 2-D roughness elements increases linearly

with roughness height. This agrees with the results that Wiegel (1992) and Saric (1991)

obtained experimentally,and Crouch (1992) and Choudhari (1990) obtained theoretically.

Results from configuration #2 were disregarded because the surface roughness element

peeled from the edge of the test plate due to the poor adhesive property of the tape.

Therefore, results from this case were misleading and not representative of the effect of

surface roughness on receptivity.

Figure 45 shows the measurements of the fluctuating velocity component of the

T-S waves at a fixed location near branch II of the stability curve for two conditions. One

condition was the single configurations tapes with longer wavelengths, which shows the

41

Page 60: NON-LINEAR BoUNDARY,LAYER RECEPTIVITY … · NON-LINEAR BOUNDARY-LAYER RECEPTIVITY DUE TO DISTRIBUTED SURFACE ROUGHNESS Tahani Reffet Amer Old Dominion University ... Detuning of

existence of linear receptivity for these tests. If the line representing linear receptivity

effects is extended, it will cross the origin; however, this case of zero linear receptivity

can't be achieved in actuality. It is observed that an increase in tape thickness causes

a linear increase in the T-S wave amplitudes. The second condition covers all the

combined configurations (long wavelength and short wavelength), and indicates that there

is a non-linear receptivity phenomenon present for configurations 5, 6 and 7. If the line

for this condition is extended, it will not cross the origin, and this intersection with the

ordinate is considered to be the case of purely non-linear receptivity ( does not actually

exist). The difference between these two lines is due to the non-linear receptivity effect

and the slopes of the two lines are the same ( linear receptivity effect).

Therefore, the present research has shown that both linear and non-linear

receptivity effects exist for the present test conditions. This experiment is unique because

it is the first to demonstrate the non-linear receptivity phenomena. More receptivity

experiments are required to clarify and verify the results from this experiment.

CHAPTER6

SUMMARY, CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Summary and Conclusions

The principal experiments in this investigation have facilitated a study of the

unsteady T-S mode shape under different conditions. A leading edge with a 24:1 ratio

was used to reduce the leading-edge effect on receptivity. A scheme was used to subtract

the acoustic signal from the total hot-wire fluctuating signal. This decomposition scheme

has been documented in the literature and is limited to the case where there is a fairly

large ratio between acoustic amplitude and T-S amplitude. Furthermore, great care was

taken to eliminate any extraneous influences that would effect the validity of the

experiment. Thus, the normalized amplitudes of the mode shape and detuning results are

reliable.

In conducting acoustic receptivity experiments, one must consider the effect of all

parameters when controlling variables and the mean flow must be thoroughly

characterized. For these reasons, it was important to have the following:

a. A plane traveling wave which was obtained by placing four speakers

upstream of the test plate which produced acoustic waves at a fixed

frequency of 80 hz.

bo

Co

Zero pressure gradient, which was achieved by varying the ceiling shape

and adjusting the flap angle. (Measurement of velocity profiles and

determination of the boundary-layer shape factor showed that zero pressure

gradient was achieved.)

Good flow quality, which was shown by attaining a high limit of the

transition Reynolds number.

After taking the aforesaid issues under consideration, excitation of the T-S wave

by free.stream acoustic frequency was accomplished. The total fluctuating velocity

component was decomposed into the T-S amplitude and the freestream acoustic

amplitude. Documentation of the amplitude and phase of T-S waves for different

configurations of surface roughness elements have resulted in observation of the non-

linear receptivity phenomenon. Non-linear receptivity exists when we have different

combinations of wall-roughness elements that have long and short wavelength, which

produce non-linear phenomena in the fluctuating velocity component of the T-S waves.

This experiment has shown that linear and non-linear receptivity effects exist under the

present experimental conditions.

Increasing the wall roughness height resulted in a linear relationship between the

amplitude of the T-S wave and the roughness height. The effect of detuning on the T-S

wave was that all different configurations which have been tested "tune" at the same

44

velocity withdifferentamplituderatios,whichwasexpected.This experimentindicated

that there is a strongdetuningeffect. Theoreticalpredictionsby Crouch(1990)and

Choudhari(1992)showsimilar results. The strong effect of acoustic receptivity on the

T-S wave amplitude shows the importance of receptivity on an accurate prediction of

transition.

Recommcndal;i0n

The present experiment provides a basis for studying the non-linear receptivity

phenomenon. Further experiments addressing non-linear receptivity would help in

understanding acoustic receptivity. In addition, it is important to investigate the effect

on the T-S mode shape of different orientations of wall roughness. Studying three-

dimensional wall roughnesses might provide interesting results that clarify additional

physics beyond the acoustic receptivity phenomenon. These are some areas which can

provide further research opportunities in acoustic receptivity and which might result in

an increased ability to predict transition.
