| Research Abstract |
A series of laboratory experiments has been made on the structure of turbulent air flow over solid wavy surfaces to clarify the growth mechanism of wind waves. Important results of the experiments are summerized as follows;
1. Outer boundary of the organized motion of the turbulent air flow over wavy surface is not much different from that over flat surface.
2. Although vertical velocity profile over wavy surface depends on the phase of the waves, the profile averaged over one wave length shows a logarithmic distribution.
3. Wave-induced velocity fluctuations U^^~,W^^~ decreases vertically as exp(-kz).
4. The pressure drag of the Stokes wave surface is larger than that of a sinusoidal wave surface. The increase is mainly due to the increase of phase shift rather than the increase in the pressure magnitude.
5. If we define the sheltering coefficient of the wavy surfaces as the ratio of the pressure drag coefficient to the square of the maximum slope of the wavy surface, it can be uniguely expressed as a function of the Reynolds number.
