Hypersonic boundary layer data

Hypersonic turbulent boundary layer turbulence profiles for flow over a smooth wall. This PIV data was published in Williams et al. (2018) — see below. Three PIV measurement cases (Cases 2-4) are included in this dataset.

Data files:

Data are available in ‘.csv’ or Matlab formats. In the latter case, the flow conditions are found within the data structure ‘Cond’ and wall-normal profiles are within the data structure ‘Prof’.  Please refer to the README file and the original paper for details on each parameter and its calculation.
