This work studies the development of a thermal boundary layer during the laminar-to-
turbulent transition process over a concave surface. Direct numerical simulations are …

Boundary layer flows over concave wall can be unstable to disturbances giving rise to
streamwise counter-rotating vortices known as Görtler vortices. These vortices in its …

Görtler instability studies are conducted considering a more realistic geometry represented
by the pressure side of a turbine blade. The creation and maintenance of Görtler vortices are …

Both steady and unsteady Görtler vortices may lead to an incompressible boundary layer
flow to transition from laminar to turbulent flow. Görtler structures can modify hydrodynamic …

In this paper, a high-order, pseudo-spectral numerical code (HOPe) is used to investigate
the influence of curvature variations on the nonlinear evolution of different Görtler vortices …

The streamwise-oriented counter-rotating vortices also known as Görtler vortices occur due
to the imbalance between centrifugal and inertial forces in boundary layer flows over …
