A comprehensive literature review on the estimation of the dissipation rate of turbulent
kinetic energy is presented to assess the current state of knowledge available in this area …

This Handbook consolidates authoritative and state-of-the-art information from the large
number of disciplines used in Experimental Fluid Mechanics into a readable desk reference …

Advanced technologies employed in modern respiratory airflow transducers have exhibited
powerful capabilities in accurately measuring respiratory flow under controlled and …

The uncertainty quantification of particle image velocimetry (PIV) measurements has
recently become a topic of great interest as shown by the recent appearance of several …

The neutrally stable atmospheric surface layer is used as a physical model of a very high
Reynolds number, canonical turbulent boundary layer. Challenges and limitations with this …

In this paper, a new temperature compensation technique for thermal anemometers is
presented. The compensation is realized by using a temperature sensor independent of the …

This paper presents two calibration methods for a CTA probe valid at low speeds covering a
range of 0.029 m/s≤ U≤ 1.79 m/s. The well-known in situ calibration method using a simple …

This chapter describes the main characteristics of a wide range of experimental techniques
for skin-friction determination. It discusses direct methods of skin friction determination that …

A simple laminar pipe-flow method for hot-wire anemometer calibration in the low-velocity
range is described. The stable flow was generated by draining water from an air-tight …

The Martian atmosphere is of great scientific interest, both because of its similarity to Earth's
atmosphere, and because of its relevance to exploration of Mars. Although satellite …
