Note presenting an investigation of the problem of the influence of free-stream turbulence on the transfer of heat from a cylinder in forced convection at very low Mach numbers but at large Reynolds numbers. An attempt is made to determine whether the sole influence of turbulence is to shift the point of laminar separation in subcritical flow, or the point of transition in supercritical flow, and thus effect a change in the rate of heat transfer.
