Structure of Turbulent Boundary Layers and Surface Pressure Fluctuations on a Patch of Large Roughness Elements

Measurements were made in a zero pressure gradient turbulent boundary layer over two roughness patches containing hemispherical and cubical elements. The elements were 3 mm in height and spaced 16.5 mm apart in an array containing 7 streamwise rows and 6 spanwise columns for a total of 42 elements p...
