Correlation between density and temperature fluctuations of hypersonic turbulent boundary layers at Ma∞ = 8

The correlation between density and temperature fluctuations (ρ′ and T′) of the turbulent boundary layer is significantly affected by wall temperature. Direct numerical simulation databases with the ratio of wall-to-recovery temperature Tw/Tr = 0.8 and 0.15 are considered. A fitting slope method and...
