摘要
The paper is devoted to show the relation between the amplitude modulation and the convection velocity in a turbulent boundary layer. The analysis has been performed based upon velocity profiles measured with the hot-wire technique in a turbulent boundary layer with pressure gradient corresponding to turbomachinery conditions. The VITA detection method of small-scale structures was used in order to show the impact of the pressure gradient on phase averaged time-traces changes in the aspect of amplitude modulation. The physical significance of the large scales influence on the small scales, formerly known as the amplitude modulation, has been elucidated. It was demonstrated that the measure of amplitude modulation can be used as an indicator of the convection velocity of coherent structures. The convection velocity profile can be described in the inner region using the amplitude modulation term when the proper scale is applied. The convection velocity prediction in favourable and adverse pressure gradients shows that t the strongest impact of the pressure gradient occurs in the buffer layer. The stronger increase occurs in the buffer layer. It was also found that the skewness factor of phase-averaged VITA waveforms, is very similar in shape with the cross-product term of the streamwise skewness factor, which quantifies amplitude modulation. It indicates that the well-known modification of quadrant events in pressure gradient flows is a result of the amplitude modulation phenomenon.
