PIV measurement of separated flow in a square channel with streamwise periodic ribs on one wall
In. this study, particle image velocimetry (PIV) is used to investigate the physical process of separated flow in a square channel roughened with periodically transverse ribs on one wall. The ribs obstruct the channel by 15% of its height and are arranged 12 rib heights apart. The Reynolds number based on the bulk-mean velocity and the corresponding hydraulic diameter of the channel, is fixed at 2
