✦ Synopsis

Two-dimensional flow fields and temperature boundary layer profiles around a heated and rotating circular cylinder in crossflow were experimentally investigated for a subcritical freestream-Reynolds-number 5.6 -10 ~ corresponding to a flow velocity of 7 m/s. Test parameter was the ratio of free stream velocity to peripheral speed, which encompasses the range between zero and 2.5. An electronically-controlled hot wire measurement technique, practicable for the requirements of 1-2 mm boundary layer thickness, was used. The numerous reliable test results confirm previous reported experiments. Characteristic features in heat transfer are discussed.
