Abstract

The flow and temperature characteristics within an unstable surface boundary layer were determined using a hot-wire anemometer and a cold-wire thermometer. Results of experiments on the unstable surface boundary layer flow showed that the peak frequency of power spectrum density in instability was shifted more toward the low-frequency side than in the neutral condition. The co-spectra of heat flux had similar tendencies to the results of Kaimal. The logarithm of the ratio between roughness lengths for momentum and heat showed similar results to those which were obtained from field observation in grass plain fields by Brutseart.
