Transition and turbulence measurements in hypersonic flowsThis paper reviews techniques for transitional- and turbulent-flow measurements and describes current research in support of turbulence modeling. Special attention is given to the potential of applying hot wire and laser velocimeter to measuring turbulent fluctuations in hypersonic flow fields. The results of recent experiments conducted in two hypersonic wind tunnels are presented and compared with previous hot-wire turbulence measurements.
