As much as 50-80 percent of the surface of a typical blade of a                 gas turbine is covered by flow undergoing transition from the                   laminar regime to the turbulent regime.  The insufficiency of                   current models for predicting heat transfer at the surface of                   gas turbine blades can be traced to the present inability to                    predict the onset of transition and to model the energy                         transport in a boundary layer undergoing transition.  The                       proposed research will experimentally investigate the effect on                 transition of the following three parameters:  (a) freestream                   turbulence intensity, (b) surface curvature, and (c) streamwise                 pressure gradient.
