Abstract

Hot-wire measurements in air of \ $\overline^$ \ in the near wall region of a turbulent boundary layer at high Reynolds numbers indicate a thermal interaction for typical two-wire probes, such as X- and V-probes. In order to determine this interaction two infinitely long parallel wires have been studied numerically by solving the heat transfer equation. Computations give that for X- and V-probes a typical P\`clet number based on wire separation should be larger than about 50 to keep thermal interaction at an acceptable level. On the other hand for the Parallel-probe the results indicate that the P\`clet number should suitably be less than 10 to ensure good sensitivity and uniform response in the frequency range of interest.
