Abstract
Measurements of the mean and turbulence intensity of the streamwise velocity component in a fully developed, two-dimensional channel flow of water are presented. The measurements were made with the individual realization laser Doppler technique and emphasize the near-wall region of the flow. A dual-scatter optical arrangement was used which employs 90° scattering and yields a probe volume whose length normal to the wall is 0.0075 inches. A correction has been made to the data that accounts for the statistical biasing which occurs in the individual realization technique. The corrected data demonstrate that the individual realization technique can yield accurate velocity estimates in the near-wall region where turbulent fluctuations are large.
