Abstract
An experimental investigation was conducted to study the effects of fr ee-stream turbulence on surface pressures on a flat plate with rectang ular leading-edge geometry using turbulence-producing grids. The measu red mean, standard deviation and peak pressure coefficients as well as lateral cross-correlation of fluctuating pressures are presented and discussed.
