摘要
Using a large-time-resolved particle image velocimetry field of view, a developing turbulent spot is followed in space and time in a rectangular channel flow for more than 100 advective time units. We show that the flow can be decomposed into a large-scale motion consisting of an asymmetric quadrupole centred on the spot and a small-scale part consisting of streamwise streaks. From the temporal evolution of the energy of the streamwise and spanwise velocity perturbations, it is suggested that a self-sustaining process can occur in a turbulent spot above a given Reynolds number.
