Figure 6

Plots showing measurements of (a) and (b) against dimensionless distance above the tank base . The data shown correspond to (), (ā–”), (), and (ā‹„). To avoid saturation, a single error bar has been included in each plot which is representative of the variability observed in all of the data shown. The theoretical curves for both r.m.s horizontal and velocity components are included for comparison, shown here as solid lines.
