Unsteady separation processes at large finite, Reynolds number, Re, are considered, as well as the possible relation to existing descriptions of boundary-layer separation in the limit Re → ∞. The model problem is a fundamental vortex-driven three-dimensional flow, believed to be relevant to bursting near the wall in a turbulent boundary layer. Bursting is known to be associated with streamwise vortex motion, but the vortex/wall interactions that drive the near-wall flow toward breakdown have not yet been fully identified. Here, a simulation of symmetric counter-rotating vortices is used to assess the influence of sustained pumping action on the development of a viscous wall layer. The calculated solutions describe a three-dimensional flow at finite Re that is independent of the streamwise coordinate and consists of a crossflow plane motion, with a developing streamwise flow. The unsteady problem is constructed to mimic a typical cycle in turbulent wall layers and numerical solutions are obtained over a range of Re. Recirculating eddies develop rapidly in the near-wall flow, but these eddies are eventually bisected by alleyways which open up from the external flow region to the wall. At sufficiently high Re, an oscillation was found to develop in the streamwise vorticity field near the alleyways with a concurrent evolution of a local spiky behaviour in the wall shear. Above a critical value of Re, the oscillation grows rapidly in amplitude and eventually penetrates the external flow field, suggesting the onset of an unstable wall-layer breakdown. Local zones of severely retarded streamwise velocity are computed which are reminiscent of the low-speed streaks commonly observed in turbulent boundary layers. A number of other features also bear a resemblance to observed coherent structure in the turbulent wall layer.

The flow in a 59-cm dia high work, transonic compressor rotor has been visualized using a fluorescent gas, 2,3, butanedione, as a tracer. The technique allows the three-dimensional flow to be imaged as a set of distinct planes. Quantitative static density maps were obtained by correcting the images for distortion and nonlinearities introduced by the illumination and imaging systems. These images and maps were used to analyze the three-dimensional nature of the blade’s boundary layer and shock system.
