Abstract:
A semi-empirical model is developed to study distortions of the phase function of a coherent beam, which are induced by turbulent fluctuations of flow parameters. Large eddy simulations of the boundary-layer and mixing-layer flows and also of related aero-optical effects are performed. Results of numerical calculations are compared with results of physical experiments and with data obtained by solving the Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes equations.
