Transition in Separating-Reattaching Boundary Layer FlowsExperimental work with leading edge separation bubbles is presented to clarify the issues regarding transition in separated regions. Hot-wire measurements, in the form of oscilloscope traces, turbulence intermittency and conditionally sampled velocity distributions are given. The resulting points of transition onset and spot production rates are compared to existing correlations.
