An experimental investigation of the stability of plane Poiseuille flow
Abstract
Stability experiments were made on plane Poiseuille flow generated in a long channel of a rectangular cross-section with a width-to-depth ratio of 27·4. By reducing the background turbulence down to a level of 0·05 %, we succeeded in maintaining the flow laminar at Reynolds numbers up to 8000, which is much larger than the critical Reynolds number of the linear theory, about 6000. The downstream development of the sinusoidal disturbance introduced by the vibrating ribbon technique was studied in detail at various frequencies in the range of Reynolds number from 3000 to 7500. This paper presents the experimental results and clarifies the linear stability, the nonlinear subcritical instability and the breakdown leading to the transition.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
