Abstract
Flow visualization and flow measurement on the roof of the Texas Tech Building are performed in this study. It mainly explores visualization techniques applied to full scale and discusses the results of how mea surements within the separation bubble. The shape of the separation bu bble along one axis of the building has been characterized by an inter mittency factor. Preliminary observations of the dynamics of the separ ation bubble are made based upon visualization records.
