Replication Data for: Induced periodicity in wakes

These are streamwise velocity time series measured in the wakes of a non-shedding porous disc, referred to as M, next to different solid discs that do exhibit vortex shedding.<br>
Data was obtained by means of hot-wire anemometry in the Large Scale Wind Tunnel at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology in near-laminar inflow (background turbulence intensity of approximately 0.3%) at an inflow velocity of 10m/s (diameter-based Reynolds number 125000 for a diameter D = 0.2m). <br>
<br>
Three sets of experiments were run and are included in this data set:<br>
<br>
1. Span-wise measurements at 8D downstream of the different solid disc and the M disc (singe disc setting) are provided. Measurements downstream of the single non-shedding M disc are included here for convenience, but they also have been published here:<br>

<br>
2. The M disc was placed next to solid discs of three different diameters, D = 0.20m, D_17 = 0.17m and D_10 = 0.10m, referred to as S200, S170 and S100, respectively, that exhibit vortex shedding at different shedding frequencies. The spacing was 2D center-to-center. <br>
Span-wise profiles were measured at 8D downstream for each case.<br>
<br>
3. The M disc was placed next to a solid disc of the same diameter, D = 0.2m, referred to as S200, that exhibits vortex shedding. One spacing, namely 2D center-to-center, was investigated. <br>
A streamwise profile between the discs was obtained. This measurement was carried out with multiple single wires, and we include the data of the wire at the inner corner of the M disc, and the wire at the inner corner of the S200 disc, i.e., the cases used in this manuscript.<br>
<br>
The scope of these experiments was to study how the ``dead" wake of a non-shedding disc interacts with a wake with a dominant frequency coming from a shedding disc.<br>
<br>
The data presented here are single wire hot-wire data obtained in the recirculating wind tunnel at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology. The hot-wires, 55P01 gold-plated wires with a sensing element length of 1.25 mm, were operated using a Dantec Dynamics StreamLine Pro Constant Temperature Anemometer. The sampling frequency was 75047 Hz, and a 30000 Hz hardware low pass filter was employed. The acquisition time was 180 s.<br>
An automated traverse system was used to move the hot-wires through the wind tunnel.<br>
Three disc types were used, a mesh disc (diameter D = 0.2 m), referred to as type M, with uniform blockage; and three solid discs with different diameters, D = 0.20m, D_17 = 0.17m and D_10 = 0.10m, and thus different shedding frequencies, referred to as S200, S170 and S100.
