Description:

The response of an initially neutral rough-wall turbulent boundary layer to a change in wall temperature is investigated experimentally. The change causes a localized peak in stable stratification that diffuses and moves away from the wall with downstream distance. The streamwise and wall-normal components of turbulent velocity fluctuations are damped at similar rates, even though the stratification only directly impacts the wall-normal component. The Reynolds shear profiles reveal the growth of an internal layer that scales approximately with the bulk Brunt–Väisälä frequency.
