Abstract

The wall pressure fluctuation fields on fairing surfaces and in the surrounding turbulent boundary layer are experimentally investigated. The fairings were in the shape of semi-ellipsoids and were mounted on the wall of a subsonic low-noise wind tunnel. Their heights amounted to 25% of the oncoming boundary layer thickness. The main physical features of the flows under consideration are determined by means of the surface oil-flow visualization. The fluctuating wall pressure field is compared with the flow pattern. It is shown that the greatest pressure fluctuation levels are recorded in the nose region of the fairing surface. It is established that lengthening the model leads to a considerable reduction of the pressure fluctuation strength in the region of flow separation from the fairing surface.
