摘要
The flow field in a cavity depends on the properties of the upstream boundary layer and the cavity geometry. Comprehensive studies for rectangular cavities have been conducted. This experimental study determines the global surface pressure pattern for elliptical cavities (eccentricities of 0, 0.66 and 0.87) in a naturally developed turbulent boundary layer using pressure-sensitive paint. The ratio between the length (major axis) and the depth is 4.43–21.5, and the freestream Mach number is 0.83. The mean surface pressure distribution of an elliptical cavity resembles that of a rectangular cavity. A change in the value of eccentricity (wall curvature) affects the region for an adverse pressure gradient in an open cavity, an extension of the plateau in a transitional–closed cavity and flow expansion near the front and rear edges. The boundaries between an open, transitional and closed cavities vary.
