The evolution to fully developed laminar flow in low aspect ratio, two-dimensional, lid-driven cavities has been studied experimentally and numerically. Velocity measurements were made in water in a moving-lid apparatus using a laser Doppler velocimeter (LDV). Numerical solutions for the cavity flow were obtained by solving the two-dimensional mass-momentum equation set in a finite-volume framework. The measured and predicted results were in excellent agreement. Fully developed cavity flow is said to exist when the main regions of the flow field become independent of the aspect ratio. When fully developed conditions prevail, a region of countercurrent flow (CCF) separates the end structures, which are decoupled. The extent of the end regions is shown to grow linearly with increasing Reynolds number Re, based on the lid speed and the cavity height. Consequently, the critical aspect ratio for the onset of fully developed flow is also linearly dependent on Re. Above a critical Reynolds number, Re [Formula: see text] 300, the flow becomes unsteady, and a lower-wall, tertiary vortex appears, which is thought to be associated with the onset of hydrodynamic instability.Key words: lid-driven cavity, laminar flow, shallow water cover, countercurrent flow.

A compact white light fringe image velocimeter (WFIV) is used to measure laminar flow. It is demonstrated, by comparison with similar measurements employing a differential laser Doppler velocimeter (DLDV), that the WFIV is a practical and important technique for determining flow velocities.

A two-dimensional rectangular cavity of aspect ratio one is studied experimentally using a laser-doppler velocimeter. The enclosure is air filled and consists of two vertical walls at unequal isothermal temperatures and two connecting horizontal walls with temperatures varying linearly between the two vertical surfaces. This study clearly defines the existence of periodic laminar flow regimes detectable at Ra numbers above 0.3 × 107. These periodic variations in velocity are induced by the upper and lower boundary conditions. The envelopes of vertical and horizontal velocity fluctuations are reported as a function of position for Rayleigh numbers of 0.25 × 107, 0.50 × 107, and 0.85 × 107. In addition, the effect of Ra number on frequency of flow is reported.
