The problem of determination of the turbulence onset in natural convection on heated inclined plates in an air environment has been experimentally revisited. The transition has been detected by using hot wire velocity measurements. The onset of turbulence has been considered to take place where velocity fluctuations (measured through turbulence intensity) start to grow. Experiments have shown that the distance to plate edge where the onset begins depends both on the plate inclination angle and the plate temperature, thus on the Grashof number defined in terms of the temperature difference between the heated plate and the surrounding air. An experimental setup to measure the above mentioned distance has been developed. In this paper such an apparatus is presented, as well as the experimental procedure and some experimental results. | |
