While the transition from laminar to turbulent flow occurs at a Reynolds number of approximately 2300 in a pipe, the precise value depends on whether any small disturbances are present. If the ...

At a Reynolds number between 10^5 and 10^6 ... Boundary layer profiles for laminar and turbulent flow. The boundary layer over the front face of a sphere or cylinder is laminar at lower Reynolds ...

In 1883, Osborne Reynolds injected ink into ... as the input water velocity increased, the flow went from laminar (smooth and predictable) to turbulent (unsteady and unpredictable) through the ...

This is of great interest for high Reynolds number wind tunnel testing ... To visualize laminar and turbulent regions on a TSP painted surface, the method of temperature steps can be used: the ...
