Transitional Intermittency Exponents Through Deterministic Boundary-Layer Structures and Empirical Entropic Indices

A computational procedure is developed to determine initial instabilities within a three-dimensional laminar boundary layer and to follow these instabilities in the streamwise direction through to the resulting intermittency exponents within a fully developed turbulent flow. The fluctuating velocity...
