| Description | A better understanding of the growth and development of isolated regions of turbulence (turbulent spots) in a laminar boundary layer. A better understanding of the physical the boundary layer laminar to turbulent flow transition typically occurring in a multi-stage turbomachines. |
| Exploitation Route | This finding has an important implication to the modelling of heat transfer of turbine blades and computational models of boundary layer transition in turbomachinery. |
