Estimation and prediction of the roughness function on realistic surfaces (2014, background): “Roughness occurs everywhere, from buildings and canopies, to engineering surfaces with erosion, deposits, and spallations [1].”
Spatial structure of a turbulent boundary layer with irregular surface roughness (2010, methodology): “Rough surface The surface under consideration was derived from a surface profilometry scan of a turbine blade damaged by deposition of foreign materials reported by Bons et al. (2001) and used by Bons (2002) to study bulk skin friction and heat transfer characteristics over turbine-blade roughness.”
Observations of turbulent secondary flows in a rough-wall boundary layer (2014, background): “This surface is a scaled version of a profilometric surface scan of a turbine blade damaged by deposition of foreign materials (Bons et al. 2001).”
Numerical and experimental study of mechanisms responsible for turbulent secondary flows in boundary layer flows over spanwise heterogeneous roughness (2015, background): “This surface is a scaled version of a profilometric surface scan of a turbine blade damaged by the deposition of foreign materials (Bons et al. 2001).”
