Influence of stream turbulence intensity and eddy size of the fluctuating pressure forces on a single tube
This paper presents a systematic investigation of the influence of streamturbulence on the pressure forces on a single tube. Grids were used to producedifferent turbulent flow fields with longitudinal integral scale (eddy size)ranging from 0.1 to 0.5 tube diameters and turbulence intensities ranging from0.1 to 3-2 %. The measurements were carried out at two Reynolds numbers, 2.7 - 10 and U.1-104 ,
