Arj. Borges et Jl. Carvalho, AERODYNAMIC AND THERMAL INTERACTION OF AN ELEMENT OF A VERY ROUGH-SURFACE WITH A TURBULENT BOUNDARY-LAYER FLOW, Journal of wind engineering and industrial aerodynamics, 65(1-3), 1996, pp. 273-278
In this paper a study of the boundary-layer Bow over a staggered distr
ibution of cubes having a zero pressure gradient is made. The results
presented are preliminary and aim to contribute to the understanding o
f the Bow structure close to the roughness elements and the influence
it has on the drag and heat transfer by forced convection. The effect
of elevating the test cube above the others is studied.
