The first occurrence of turbulent bursts as shown in Figure 8 is taken as the onset of transition. In some instances it is difficult to distinguish between large laminar oscillations and low-frequency turbulence.* This uncertainty might be resolved by making a pitot-tube survey to determine if the mean ve- locity profile is laminar or turbulent. Although no pitot-tube surveys were conducted on this tanker model, plans are underway to substantiate the hot- wire response to boundary-layer flow on a flat plate by simultaneous measure- ment of the boundary profile with total-head tubes. In any event, it is ♦Records of this type were not common and were obtained at low speeds from wires placed far back on the hull.
